luxury car tax

Premium vehicle surcharge

A luxury car tax is an additional tax imposed on vehicles priced above a certain threshold, intended to generate revenue from high-end purchases while discouraging conspicuous consumption.

The specific threshold and rate vary by jurisdiction.

Australia's luxury car tax applies at the point of sale; other countries fold similar levies into registration or import duties.

The luxury car tax added twelve thousand to the purchase price.
