VRT on a car with 109g/km in 2021?

What will the VRT be on a car with 109g/km of CO₂ in 2021? At the moment it is 16 per cent of OMSP.

Thanks

Hi Dermot,

The rate from 2021 will be 13.5 per cent for a car with 109g/km. 

Be careful though, as an imported car's CO₂ figure will be 'uplifted' to a WLTP-equivalent value and that will in turn bring the VRT rate up.
