SB85 creates a new annual fee that electric vehicle and electric hybrid vehicle owners must pay to the state of South Dakota. This fee replaces some of the fuel tax revenue the state loses when drivers use electric motors instead of gasoline, since electric vehicle owners don't buy as much gas and therefore pay less in gas taxes.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
