Guess the last minute change was done to avoid to affect French car producers since all their vehicules are below that limit. I however suppose that the threshold will go down every new year.
Granted this tax is against big (mainly German) SUV but it will also affect some luxury / GT cars. The new M3/M4 at around 1800 kg will be bordeline.
Crazy taxes! Today in our newspaper: extra taxes entering Brussels and also tax per distance driven and progressive with the displacement of the engine. For an evarage car another 1200€ per year on top of all this just for communting to work!

ICE cars are near dead!
ICE cars are not dead, they are being murdered.
