Why was the PARF rebate revised?

Question

Accepted Answer

The Preferential Additional Registration Fee (PARF) is intended to encourage the timely renewal of the vehicle population to keep the vehicle fleet younger, and hence safer and less pollutive. Electric Vehicles (EVs) are less pollutive than conventional petrol cars. As EVs become more commonplace, there is less need to encourage early deregistration through the PARF rebate.
