Petition Reverse the Tax Treatment of Double Cab Pickup Trucks in the 2024 Autumn Budget
We call on the Government to reverse the recent decision announced in the 2024 Autumn Budget to reclassify double cab pickup vehicles with a payload of one tonne or more as cars for certain tax purposes.
More details
We think this change will harm many businesses, farmers, tradespeople, and individuals relying on double cab pickups for work, making work vehicles costly. We think reclassifying them as cars drastically raises costs by increasing Benefit in Kind tax and lowering their capital allowances. Essential to rural operations, they carry heavy loads and handle rough terrain, yet we think this tax reclassification ignores their commercial use. Reconsider the change and engage affected industries.
