Question 1

Does an electric Renault pay car tax in Zürich?

Accepted Answer

No, electric and fuel-cell cars are exempt from car tax in the canton of Zürich. That covers a used Zoe, Mégane E-Tech or Renault 5 as long as the holder lives in the canton.

Question 2

How is a petrol or hybrid Renault taxed in Zürich?

Accepted Answer

Zürich adds an amount for engine size to one for total weight. A car in energy label A at 130 g/km of CO₂ or less gets 80% off, and label B 50%, in its first year and the three after.

Question 3

Where do I register a used Renault in the canton of Zürich?

Accepted Answer

At the canton's road traffic office, the Strassenverkehrsamt, with proof of insurance, the seller's Fahrzeugausweis and an identity document. The plates stay with the seller, so you bring your own or get new ones.

Question 4

Is a Renault E-Tech hybrid worth it in Zürich traffic?

Accepted Answer

In stop-and-go traffic around Zürich and Winterthur, the E-Tech full hybrid often runs on electricity and recovers energy when braking. It charges itself, so it suits drivers with no charging point at home.
