LA OMV Electric & Hybrid road usage fee
Posted on 4/14/26 at 9:22 am

I mean i sort of get the electric fee but what the frick with this hybrid fee. My hybrid does not plug in. doesn't charge. gets mildly better gas mileage in the city but consumes more gas on the highway. I pay for gas all year long with this vehicle.
And the difference between the hybrid and the electric fee differences is only like $37 when i pay for gas all year. What the frick.

Hybrids cause more road wear and tear. Hybrids consume less gas, the taxes of which go towards repairing roads. The piper will be paid.

But it does cause more road wear than the ICE version of the same/similar vehicle.

So? If you are using that argument, then huge trucks, which cause significantly more wear and tear to roads than a hybrid sedan, should also pay this tax.
And I'm fine with the tax / fee on plug-ins. They get to avoid paying for the upkeep of the roads with this tax. But hybrids? I don't know. Maybe a more minimal tax because they still use gas and pay that gas tax.

They do pay a higher tax based on weight.
"Yes, taxes and fees can differ between sedans, SUVs, and full-size trucks in Louisiana, primarily due to differences in registration fees based on vehicle weight and type, rather than different sales tax percentages."

They do in the form of more gas tax since they get lower mpg

Heavier vehicles = increased road wear.

government forces manufacturers to get creative with efficiency, now we are penalized for little more efficient vehicles.

so you're saying we should tax vehicles also by passenger weight?

smart roads that weigh your vehicle in real time and tally your tax bill at the end of the month based on weight?
I can see it

If the extra 300lbs a mild hybrid weighs destroy your roads, i think you have bigger problems. But then again this is Louisiana.
