House Bill 1782, sponsored by Fritts, amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Section 55-4-116, which pertains to registration fees for vehicles. The bill specifically modifies the classification of vehicles subject to these fees by deleting the term "hybrid electric vehicles" and retaining only "plug-in hybrid electric vehicles." Additionally, it establishes a new fee structure for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, stating that from January 1, 2027, to January 1, 2028, the registration fee will be set at one hundred dollars ($100).
The provisions of this bill will take effect on January 1, 2027, ensuring that the changes to the registration fees and vehicle classifications are implemented in a timely manner. This legislative change aims to streamline the registration process and clarify the fees associated with plug-in hybrid electric vehicles in Tennessee.
