The LEZ operates to encourage the most polluting heavy diesel vehicles driving in Greater London to become cleaner. The LEZ is separate from the ULEZ.

The LEZ Scheme Order in Section 5 details non chargeable vehicles. https://content.tfl.gov.uk/consolidated-scheme-order-september-2020.pdf

Exemptions and discounts from the LEZ are listed on the TfL website.
