Akkermann says a new car tax plan is coming. It uses tax office data.
Car sales are low. After two years, the situation is bad. The country admits not everything went well. Taxes affect behavior. Last year, more cars were sold, but numbers are now lower.
Electric and hybrid car sales grow. Hybrid cars sell more because petrol and diesel cars have high taxes. The law helps cars with less pollution. They use wind energy.
Estonia's cars get older. Many cars are not electric. The law also wants people to use cars longer.
Old car issues were not solved by the tax. Now, car owners can remove cars from the registry without them. Before, proof of recycling was needed.
Car dealers say registries are cleaner. Many workers lost jobs. People change jobs, but it is not normal.
The car tax helps build and fix roads. Parked cars take space. Money is also needed for police and accidents.
Tax affects used cars. It made the market worse. Europe says all car changes must be taxed. Import car tax is 1000–1200 euros.
A new car tax plan is coming. People with disabilities get help. Cars for kids get tax breaks.
The finance ministry says car tax brings 205 million euros. People with disabilities get more help.
Decisions use public opinion. Tax office data shows behavior. Rich people pay more tax. Electric cars have lower tax but cost more.
