For diesel trucks, the per-kilometre rate is set at 20.1 cents, compared with 3.8 cents for electric, under the charge that takes effect on 1 July on nearly all Dutch motorways for vehicles over 3,500 kg laden weight. Rabobank sector manager Marieke Kuijpers calculates that costs for diesel trucks will rise by an average of €10,000 next year, while ING sector economist Rico Luman expects transport prices to increase by 7–8% as carriers pass on the levy. A temporary 22.3% discount will apply from 1 September to end-2026 due to high fuel prices.
