How much is the car tax in European countries?
Shared by Emre Özpeynirci According to the report, the automobile tax in Turkey is at least 5 times higher and at most 15 times higher than in European countries. For this reason, when the dollar and inflation rise, the cars that go up receive the second blow from the doubled tax.

As a result, it is offered for sale with price tags such as 600 thousand TL, 800 thousand TL or 1 million TL.
When we look at the comparison, it is 15 times that of Spain, 14 times of Greece, 13 times of Portugal, 11 times of France, 10 times of Germany, 8 times of Denmark, 7 times of Austria, 6 times of Belgium. times more taxes. Of course, it should be noted that this criterion may vary according to car models and even their packages.
