Il car tax this is one of the most talked about and disliked taxes by Italian motorists. Calculated according to engine power and emissions, it will be mandatory to pay it again next year, subject to some exceptions, clearly indicated by law. Due to a special exemption (full or partial), the tax burden will be less burdensome for those who have the latter. Let’s go, then, and find out exactly what they are.

Old cars

One of the most consolidated exemptions applies to old cars, where that means those that have over 30 years from the date of construction (“Unless proven otherwise, the year of construction coincides with the year of the first registration in Italy or in another country”). The category includes cars and motorcycles considered as historical and cultural heritage, as long as they are not used for commercial purposes. The legislation highlights the importance of keeping them in good condition.

It is not necessary to submit a special application to benefit from the measure, or even to register in special registers: everything happens automatically. However, if the vehicle is used on public roads, the owner must pay an annual distribution tax at a flat rate. The amount varies by region and applies regardless of historical value or recognition. Referring to the indicators on the ACI website, a sum of:

• 28.40 euros for cars
• 11.36 euros for motorcycles

The situation becomes more complicated in relation to cars between 20 and 29 years old. In fact, on the subject there is a division in the policies adopted by individual local authorities, who have the right to manage the matter based on their programs. For example, the Lombardy being recognized when he passed the twenty year mark.

Environmentally friendly vehicles

The ongoing climate crisis and the need to reduce pollution emissions have forced several Italian regions to take measures for less polluting vehicles. Even in 2025, almost all provide for the payment ​​​​​​(temporary or permanent) of the tax for electric cars.

The same applies to hybrids, although the length of the latter is variable, from three to five years from the date of registration, depending on the local authority. It is advisable to check the rules on the ACI website or at the tax offices in your area.

For people with disabilities

Another important area of ​​liberation is the car tax concerns about people with disabilities recognized according to Law 104/92. It applies to both the disabled driver and the family member who is responsible for the asset, as long as the vehicle complies with the regulations requirements special:

• Displacement equal to or less than 2,000cc for petrol engines
• Displacement equal to or less than 2,800cc for diesel engines
• Power equal to or less than 150 kW for electrical appliances

The categories of beneficiaries including:

• People with reduced or permanently impaired motor skills
• Blind and deaf
• Individuals with intellectual or mental disabilities who are entitled to an accompanying allowance
• Subjects who have undergone multiple amputations or have severe walking problems

For the purposes of happiness, a special application must be forwarded to the regional tax offices or ACI offices, attaching the required medical and tax documents.
