classe de veículo

classe de veículo — vehicle class for tolls
This determines the price of a toll, and it is based on two things: the vertical height above the first axle and the number of axles. Class 1: under 1.10 m; class 2: two axles and 1.10 m or more; class 3: three axles; class 4: more than three. Motorcycles pay as class 1, but with a device they become class 5 and get a 30% discount. Some class 2 vehicles pay as class 1, but only if they are on IMT lists and have a Via Verde device.
Where you come across it. Getting a device, disputing the amount charged, working out the cost of a trip.
Neither the age of the car nor the type of fuel affects the class; claims to the contrary on social media are false. You can check your class by make and model on the Via Verde website.
