There are currently 7 used Vauxhall Grandland X models for sale on Motoring Today, spanning model years from 2018 to 2019. Understanding the Vehicle Excise Duty (VED), commonly known as road tax, for these cars is straightforward but depends critically on the individual vehicle's first registration date and its CO2 emissions or fuel type. For a used car in the UK, the VED rate is determined by when it was first registered. Vehicles registered from 1 April 2017 onwards, which includes all 2018-2019 Vauxhall Grandland X models, fall under a different system than older cars. These models would have paid a first-year rate based on CO2 emissions when new, then move to a standard flat rate. Additionally, cars with a list price exceeding £40,000 when new are subject to an additional 'premium car' surcharge for five years from the second year of registration, though it's important to check the specific car's original list price. While fully electric cars currently enjoy VED exemption, this is changing from April 2025. As the exact road tax amount varies for each individual vehicle based on its specific details, we cannot provide a universal figure. To find the precise VED for any Vauxhall Grandland X on our platform, please refer to the specific car's listing, where this information is provided.

Frequently asked questions

How much is road tax on a Vauxhall Grandland X?
A Vauxhall Grandland X 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 Vauxhall Grandland Xs 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 Vauxhall Grandland X?
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?
For cars registered from 1 April 2017, VED is based on a first-year rate determined by CO2 emissions, followed by a standard flat rate. A surcharge applies for cars with a list price over £40,000 when new. Cars registered before April 2017 are taxed based on their CO2 emissions bands.
