Do you think the Government should give tax discount on fuel economy cars?

[MAXBUWAYA]

Well, they did it during the 90's with the AUV

Now With Fuel Prices burning are wallets
I think the Government should encourage people to buy fuel economy cars
And they can do this by slashing off the tax or give tax discounts.

I say 1300cc below is enough.

I sure wish that our lawmakers think the same as you do. What is happening here is they are trying to think to tax all things including the vat and evat for instance. What is very disappointing here is they are sometimes using what we are paying as tax in some anomalies like "pangsuhol or panglagay".

One more thing that i'm sure many of us will agree is that we have a gasoline roll back since our peso is gaining strenght against the dollar.

Yes good idea ang tax cut on small cars. That would encourage people to buy small cars.

Then increase tax on SUVs and big cars.

they should definitely consider it. taxation is a very effective economic measure which can achieve a lot of things (by either increasing it or decreasing).

in this case, lessening the tax may impact tax revenue earnings but if we consider the forex savings on petroleum imports as well as the potential reduction in pollution, the society might be gaining more benefits than costs.

Errrr... the excise tax for vehicles costing P700,000 and below is already minimal... that's enough of a tax discount already IMO.

How much ba?

Any computation?

Dati may tax incentive (lower tax rate) ang mga AUV now. % tax na lahat. Habang tumataas ang selling price, tumataas din ang percentage ng tax. Sorry di ko lang alam kung ilan %.
