New taxes on electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids will be introduced in Nova Scotia starting October 1, targeting higher-priced models to adjust for provincial incentives. The levies aim to balance costs for consumers while maintaining support for cleaner vehicle adoption. The policy applies specifically to vehicles exceeding a set price threshold, reflecting a shift in how the province funds its EV incentives. Buyers of qualifying models will see additional fees at the time of purchase, though details on the exact amounts remain under review.
