Fri 16 November 2012 View all news

Singapore has announced plans to introduce taxes of between $5,000 and $20,000 on buyers of high carbon emission cars from July 1, 2013. Under the country's Carbon Emission-based Vehicle (CEV) scheme, buyers of low carbon cars will also be entitled to rebates between $5,000 and $20,000 starting from January 1.

To encourage taxi companies to adopt lower emission models for their fleet, the CEV rebate and registration surcharge for taxis will be set between $7,500 and $30,000, which is 50 per cent higher than that for cars.
