EV registration surcharge in Michigan
EVFeeMap provides informational state-by-state summaries of EV registration surcharges for Michigan. Fees change frequently — verify with your state’s DOT or DMV before renewal. EVFeeMap is not affiliated with any state agency and this is not legal or tax advice.
Plug-in hybrid treatment
Michigan charges plug-in hybrids a separate, lower fee — $113 per year — versus $267 for battery-electric vehicles.
2026–2027 changes
No one-time change is scheduled, but Michigan's fee is indexed and is adjusted automatically over time, so the amount can drift year to year.
Where to verify + pay
For vehicles 8,000 lbs GVWR or less. A statutory base ($100 BEV / $30 PHEV) plus a formula that adds to the fee as the state gas tax rises. After a 2026 gas-tax increase the actual surcharge is about $267 BEV / $113 PHEV. Vehicles over 8,000 lbs pay more. The current figure is from a secondary reading of the statutory formula; the mechanism is statute-defined.
