The New Zealand ³Ô¹ÏÍøÕ¾ Party
³Ô¹ÏÍøÕ¾’s petition to stop Labour’s car tax has reached 10,000 signatures in just over a week, ³Ô¹ÏÍøÕ¾ Party Leader Simon Bridges says.
“New Zealanders can see how unfair Labour’s car tax is, that’s why almost 50 people an hour are signing our petition to stop it.
“Labour’s car tax will increase the price of some of New Zealand’s most popular vehicles by up to $3000. If it is introduced alongside a proposed emissions tax on importers then it could hike the price of some vehicles by more than $6000.
“Electric vehicles can’t be used by everyone. This policy will hurt farmers, tradespeople and low-income earners. A Nissan Leaf is no good on the farm and too expensive for a low income family.
