Peugeot Realign Vehicle Range Pricing

Peugeot Price Realignment Means More Models Avoid the Luxury Vehicle Tax Premium.

Thanks to Peugeot’s latest Price Realignment, 19 models across the range are now exempt from the Vehicle Excise Duty Expensive Car Supplement, often referred to as the luxury vehicle tax premium. This means you can enjoy the benefits of a brand-new Peugeot without paying the higher vehicle tax cost typically associated with higher-value vehicles, helping you save more over the first few years of ownership.

What is the Vehicle Excise Duty Expensive Car Supplement?

The Vehicle Excise Duty Expensive Car Supplement is an additional vehicle tax charge applied to vehicles above certain price thresholds when they are first registered.

Currently, this applies to:

  • Petrol, Diesel and Hybrid vehicles with a list price of £40,000 or more
  • Electric vehicles with a list price of £50,000 or more

If your vehicle exceeds these thresholds, you’ll pay an additional £440 per year from years 2 to 6 of ownership.

If your vehicle falls below these thresholds at registration, you avoid this extra charge and simply pay the normal standard vehicle taxrate, similar to what many drivers are used to paying on older vehicles.


Why This is Good News for You

Following Peugeot’s pricing update from 5th May 2026, list prices across the 208, 2008, 3008 and 5008 ranges have been realigned across petrol, hybrid, plug-in hybrid and electric models.

This means:

  • 19 Peugeot models no longer attract the Vehicle Excise Duty Expensive Car Supplement
  • More vehicles now sit below the luxury vehicle tax threshold
  • You benefit from lower long-term ownership costs
  • Existing customer orders may also benefit if the updated list price falls below the threshold at registration

Importantly, the DVLA uses the vehicle list price at registration, including factory-fitted options, to determine whether the supplement applies.

So even if your vehicle was ordered before the pricing update, if the revised list price falls below the threshold when it is registered, the additional tax charge may no longer apply.

There is no need to cancel or re-order your existing vehicle to benefit from this change.

E-3008 and E-5008 Now Below the EV Threshold

One of the biggest highlights is that the Peugeot E-3008 and Peugeot E-5008 ranges are now below the £50,000 electric vehicle threshold, including Dual Motor versions.

This means you can now enjoy Peugeot’s premium all-electric SUVs without paying the additional luxury vehicle tax premium.

At the same time:

  • 3008 Hybrid 145 models are now below the £40,000 threshold
  • 5008 Hybrid 145 Allure & Allure Premium models are now below £40,000
  • 3008 Allure Plug-in Hybrid 225 is also now below the threshold
This creates significant savings over the first six years of ownership, making the switch to a new Peugeot even better value.
