Tax relief for motorcycles and cars up to 80 kW: nearly one million vehicles on the island are affected.

Approximately 800,000 cars could benefit from the abolition of road tax decided by the Council of Ministers for 2027.

Yesterday, the Government explained that the measure applies to small and medium-powered vehicles (up to 80 kW), those mostly used by families for daily travel.

Nationally, the measure – which also applies to all motorcycles – affects over 70% of cars currently on the road, approximately 14.5 million vehicles overall.

In Sardinia, there could be over 800,000 cars that will not have to pay the tax.

According to ACI data on the Island (year 2025) there are:

• 113,200 cars up to 40 kW,
• 377,345 cars between 41 and 55 kW
• 190,654 cars between 56 and 70 kW
• 194,952 cars between 71 and 85 kW (the abolition concerns those up to 80 kW)

As for two-wheelers (which will all benefit from the abolition without distinction of engine size), according to ACI data, approximately 150 thousand motorcycles (149,022 to be precise) are registered on the island.
