inlinesix Hypersonic April 20, 2018 Share April 20, 2018 At the end of the day which one is going to be more stringent? Last time I read a statement from WLTP with new test method the projected CO2 value will be higher that old euro method. This means same model higher CO2 may cause the vehicle fall into higher surcharge, to be confirmed. So higher cost to buyer. From another point of view is good for our environment... I rather NEA take the newest standard NOW. Rather than dropping another ball 12 mths later. This will provide clarity to both AD & motorists in next 5 yrs. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will provide clarity to both AD & motorists in next 5 yrs. I have posted previous asking which testing method did our LTA based on to get the emission results for cars to be sold in Singapore (and also a comparison of the differences in the test results)... the rest for you to go and figure out. http://www.mycarforum.com/topic/2706624-ves-2018/?p=6153141 BTW, WLTP (Worldwide harmonized Light vehicles Test Procedures) is the latest emission test standard targeted to be used by manufacturers worldwide, but the real "scary" part is DRE (Real Driving Emission) Test. Check out the details here, in my other post. http://www.mycarforum.com/topic/2706624-ves-2018/?p=6237749 All I can say is that expect more changes in the next 2 years, once more manufacturers adopt WLTP & DRE. 6 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now COE about 36K and Corolla selling at 99K. I have observed COEs prices have dropped quite abit but car prices still cannot make it.

I have observed COEs prices have dropped quite abit but car prices still cannot make it. Many years back the Corolla's OMV was just about %11K and now $18K. The Corolla was equivalent to the VIOS many years ago and each model upgrade lifted the Corolla to the next level. Likewise, the Civic was also a basic car and now a mid-tier car.

I have observed COEs prices have dropped quite abit but car prices still cannot make it. To be fair, have you considered inflation over the many years? The salary of SEs and mechanics must also increase with the rest of the population. And the increase by tax is generally only 5k to 10k, anything beyond is due to greed of ADs/PIs. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The word inflation I know lah. Just saying nia but this jump is the highest among all other types of inflation. Probably also due to inflation and different in omv? Yeah....but OMV quite similar about 14k to 15k. Now should be 18k ? Should not be 20 over k bah. Edited April 21, 2018 by Renegade777 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DACH Supersonic April 21, 2018 Share April 21, 2018 Many years back bought my Corolla at about $75000 with a 33K COE. Now COE about 36K and Corolla selling at 99K. I have observed COEs prices have dropped quite abit but car prices still cannot make it. Cars are getting expensive, and it's a worldwide problem, even we take Singapore COE and other taxes out of the equation. This is due to more stringent standards in terms of safety and emissions, inflation, higher costs of materials, more features added. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The BMW 520 and 530 is ves neutral as per pml documentation. Probably this is based in euro 6.

nazerath Turbocharged April 21, 2018 Share April 21, 2018 (edited) What happens if I get a car before the ves kicks in or before? The ves penalty is 20k for that car. If I were to buy it before the deadline, would I be affected by the 20k penalty?
