The £780 Clean Air Zone Bill
Tuesday 25th August, 2026
Peugeot commissioned research and Freedom of Information requests to reveal that UK van drivers spend an average of £780 a year on Clean Air Zone and Low Emission Zone fees and penalties. The strongest figures showed London drivers paying almost £1,200 annually, giving Peugeot a timely case for switching to its electric vans.
Why it worked: FOI-derived, location-ranked cost data turned a policy debate into a hard personal bill, creating urgency and a clear EV savings hook.
The lesson: Consider using FOI requests to surface hidden, city-by-city costs that quantify a pain point and set up your solution as relief.
