TLDR Registration duties of up to 180 percent mean Denmark is one of the most expensive countries in which to buy a new car.
Proposal to lower tax rate to just 100 percent. Currently a Porsche 911 Carrera sports car is $306,600 versus $117,900 in Germany.
"We will still have some of the highest car prices," Economy Minister Simon Emil Ammitzboll told a press conference in Copenhagen on Tuesday. At the same time, it’s "not fair that we, living in one of the wealthiest countries in the world, are driving worse cars than our neighbors in Sweden and Germany."
