Oil Demand for Cars Is Already Falling

How much would, say a new Audi A4, cost you in Sweden?

Singapore is expensive because of the additional taxes that get added on to the base price. From what people (on HN in fact) have told me most Scandinavian countries levy significant extra taxes on car purchases.

So the $40k car might actually only be $15 to 20k in other countries such as Germany and Belgium?

But neither of those ranges are near the $160k in Singapore.

Starting prices for a Volvo V60, in euros:

The Netherlands: 36,500 Belgium: 35,000 Germany: 37,500 Sweden: 31,000

These may not be exactly comparable feature-wise, but those extra taxes don't seem to have a big impact.
