the price Increases on everything from 3000 dollars to 20,000 dollars for a new car.
It is according to the bilistorganisationen FDM, what many Danish car buyers can look forward to after 1. april, if not the politicians intervene.
From 1. april, the registration fee that is take a starting point in the new and more accurate WLTP-norm, which is used to calculate the fuel consumption. Until now you have used a norm called the NEDC, but it has long been criticised for providing consumption figures, which are far from reality.
for The same reason, the dealers will, in many cases, having to hang new signs in the windshield of their salgsbiler. Both the fuel consumption and the price will be affected by the WLTP-norm and in the majority of cases, expect the industry to change will send a ekstraregning to the buyers.
It writes TV2.
TV2 has spoken with Jan Long, there are market research analyst at bilsalgssiden Bilbasen, and facing the media estimates that 80 percent of new cars will rise in price. With the last 20 percent change will lead to a lower price.
– As it looks right now, there are more cars, there rises than falls, and the net, there is talk of a price increase, ” says Jan Long for TV2.
It gets both the FDM and The Danish car importers to call for political action. According to the two organisations, it should not make it more expensive to buy the car, that the theoretical fuel consumption is now closer to reality.
It seems apparent that a majority in Parliament agrees to the position. Already in late summer last year, the government and the Danish people’s Party to get a possible price increase in vancouver. According to TV2, it was estimated here that the fuel consumption would increase by 21 percent on average – and car buyers should be compensated then.
Neither of The Danish car importers, FDM or Bilbasen believes, however, that it is sufficient. The industry has therefore put forward its concern to the ministry of finance, and according to TV2 is here started to investigate whether there is something to it.
best known Karsten Lauritzen (V) calls, however, firm against the media, to WLTP-norm no matter what it will get some cars to rise in price and others to fall.
– Those who have fiddled the most with how far the car could run on gas mileage, are punished the hardest. So somewhere is fair enough, they suffer a little. But if the equation shows that the total must be paid more in tax, then there’s an amendment, he says to TV2.
According to the media expects the ministry to have completed his investigation within a few weeks.
