Toll increase of up to 83%. We have the solution

From December 1, 2023, CO2 emission classes will be introduced as a new tariff feature for the toll based on the Toll Amendment Act passed by the German government. As a result, a CO2 surcharge will be levied for the truck toll, with a surcharge of €200 per tonne of CO2. In concrete terms, this means that for all vehicles with a technically permissible total mass of over 7.5 tons, a partial toll rate for CO2 emissions will be added to the existing toll. The toll rates will therefore increase by between 70 – 83 % compared to the current toll rates in emission class 1 (see chart).

Emission-free heavy commercial vehicles play a crucial role in environmentally conscious transport. To promote their use, a toll exemption was introduced in Germany, which is valid for these vehicles until December 31, 2025, and supports the transition to more sustainable transport solutions.
