Road tax 2026/27

Chevrolet Aveo road tax in 2026/27

Road tax (VED) on a Chevrolet Aveo in 2026/27 depends on when it was first registered. One first registered between 1 March 2001 and 31 March 2017 pays by CO2 band: across the 66 versions in the Vehicle Certification Agency's CO2 database from 2008 to 2015, that is £20 (band A) to £275 (band G) for 12 months, most often £200 (band E). One first registered from 1 April 2017 pays the £200 standard rate each year after its first (plus £440 a year in years 2 to 6 if its list price was over £40,000, or £50,000 for an electric car registered from 1 April 2025). Cars first registered before March 2001 pay by engine size: £230 up to 1,549cc, £375 above.

Which Chevrolet Aveo is cheapest to tax

59% of the Chevrolet Aveo versions sold between 2008 and 2015 pay less than the £200 a newer car pays, because their CO2 figure puts them in a band below it. The cheapest listed was the New Aveo MY2012 1.3VCDi eco (95PS) (1248cc diesel, 5MT) at 95g/km (£20); the dearest the Aveo 1.4 Auto (1398cc petrol, AUTOMATIC) at 159g/km (£275).

Of the 6,610 Chevrolet Aveos licensed in the UK at 31 December 2025 (DfT), 99% were first used between 2002 and 2016 and so pay by CO2 band, 0% from 2018 onwards and pay the flat rate, and 1% before 2001, taxed by engine size.

Limitations

Rates are the 2026/27 rates for a 12-month licence taken out from 2026-04-01; paying monthly or for six months costs slightly more. The CO2 figure is the official type-approval figure the VCA published when each version was on sale, which is normally the figure on the V5C, but a car's own V5C is what DVLA uses. Some versions were sold under a different model name (for example estate or MPV variants), and the VCA's list does not say how many of each were sold, so the version counts are not a guide to how common each band is on the road. The Expensive Car Supplement depends on the original list price including options, which the VCA list does not carry. Figures are calculated with 73 Auto's VED engine from the DVLA rate tables.
