The price of a new car includes taxes and fees, which are determined differently in each country, so the final price for a car can be drastically different. Thus, the same car can cost between € 77,000 and € 310,000, including customs duties, emissions tax and luxury tax.
Experts from motor1 compared the prices of 5 cars in 32 different markets around the world, thanks to data from insurance companies. The comparison was made for cars from the so-called. premium segment and in particular: Land Rover Range Rover, Mercedes S-Klasse, BMW X7, Audi e-tron quattro and Tesla Model S.
It turns out that the “worst” country to buy a new luxury car is Israel, where prices are significantly higher due to high taxes and duties. They increase customers’ costs by up to 80% compared to the price of the car. Here is how much these 5 models cost in Israel:
Mercedes S-Class – € 282,700
Land Rover Range Rover – 310 000 €
Audi e-tron quattro – 136 950 €
Tesla Model S – 124 348 €
BMW X7 – 231 000 €
Denmark and Finland are next on the list where car prices are formed as follows:
Mercedes S-Class – € 236,915
Land Rover Range Rover – 274 760 €
Audi e-tron quattro – 75 122 €
