At present, the economy cars sold in the American market account for about 60% of the total sales. Although there is no tax policy on emissions in the United States, the United States encourages the consumption of diesel vehicles and hybrid vehicles. In contrast, the federal tax bureau provides tax relief of up to $3,500 for hybrid vehicle users. In addition, there are tax incentives from the state government. This offset is partly due to the cost increase caused by the use of hybrid vehicles compared with Toyota Prius, which was introduced to the US market in 2000 and obtained from the US government in 2006. Relevant tax relief: the number of consumers who buy Prius from June 65438+1 October 2006 to September 30 will be reduced by $3,000 150, and the relevant tax will be paid from June 2006 1 March 2007 1.
For example, the price of the Legacy 2.5 standard model in the United States is about $25,000. To buy such a "naked car", we have to pay a registration fee of $65,438 +03.5, and then pay a consumption tax. If it is 8%, it will be $2,000. Then there is the travel tax. The calculation method of this tax is a bit complicated. Calculated according to 60% of the car price, the tax will be 2.8 USD for every 65,438+000 USD. For example, an inheritance of $25,000 will be collected at the price of 65,438+05,000, and 65,438+05,000 divided by 65,438+000 multiplied by 2.8 equals $420. Travel tax will be paid in the next few years, but the cost will decrease year by year. The algorithm is that the tax will decrease by 16.25% every year, such as 43.75% of the car price in the second year, 27.5% in the third year, and so on. That is to say, we have to pay the tax of 13.5+2000+420=2433.5 USD, which is about RMB 16 127 yuan, which is close to 65438 (about RMB 165700) of the car price.
In addition, new car insurance is of course essential. The calculation of insurance rates in the United States is complicated, taking into account the driver's driving experience, credit history, vehicle safety, vehicle maintenance costs and so on. Generally, the annual insurance premium for beginners with low credit rating is about $65,438+0,000.
In terms of fuel tax, each state is different. The average level in the United States is 47 cents per gallon of gasoline (about 12.4 cents per liter). In California, where the fuel tax rate is the highest, about 30% of the fuel cost is fuel tax, which is still low in developed capitalist countries. At present, the average retail price of gasoline including tax in the United States is about 78.7 cents (RMB 5.22).
