With four used Ford Pumas currently available on Motoring Today, ranging from 2020 to 2023 models, understanding road tax (Vehicle Excise Duty or VED) is an important consideration for UK buyers. The amount of VED you'll pay for a used car depends primarily on its first-registration date and its CO2 emissions or fuel type. This means that even within a single model range, the exact VED can vary significantly. For cars first registered before April 2017, VED is calculated purely based on CO2 emissions, with different bands corresponding to different tax rates. However, for vehicles registered from April 2017 onwards, a different system applies. These cars pay a first-year rate based on their CO2 emissions, followed by a standard flat rate in subsequent years. Additionally, cars with a list price exceeding £40,000 when new are subject to an annual 'premium' surcharge for five years from the second year of registration. It's also worth noting that the VED exemption for fully electric vehicles is set to change. Because road tax is specific to each individual car, we cannot state a precise figure here. To find the exact VED for any used Ford Puma you are interested in, please refer to the specific car's details on its listing page, where this information will be provided.

Frequently asked questions

How much is road tax on a Ford Puma?
A Ford Puma registered on or after 1 April 2017 pays the flat standard rate of £200 a year for 2026/27. Cars registered between March 2001 and March 2017 pay a CO₂-based band instead. If the car cost over £40,000 new, add the £440/yr expensive-car supplement in years 2–6.
Do electric Ford Pumas pay road tax?
Yes — since 1 April 2025 zero-emission cars pay VED. A new electric car pays £10 in its first year, then the £200 standard rate; electric cars registered before April 2025 also pay £200. Electric cars registered before March 2017 pay £20.
What is the expensive-car (£40,000) supplement?
Cars with a list price over £40,000 when new pay an extra £440 a year on top of the standard rate for five years, starting from the second licence (years 2–6). For zero-emission cars registered from 1 April 2025 the threshold is £50,000. It is based on the list price when new, not the price you pay used.
How is road tax calculated for the Ford Puma?
For cars registered from April 2017, VED is a first-year "showroom" rate based on CO₂ emissions, then the flat £200 standard rate every year after. Older cars (2001–2017) stay on the CO₂ band system (bands A–M). You can check the exact rate for any specific car by its registration on the DVLA vehicle-tax service.
How does used-car road tax work in the UK?
Cars registered from 1 April 2017 pay a first-year rate based on CO2 emissions, followed by a standard flat rate. A surcharge applies to cars with a list price over £40,000 when new. Older cars registered before this date are taxed based solely on their CO2 emission bands.
