I’m pretty sure anyone buying a scooter would also be paying sales tax, plus taxes on fuel and electricity.

The only difference is a property tax of 2.5% assessed every year.

That being said, I would be surprised if this 2.5% property tax didn’t apply to car rental companies cars as well.

Fuel is taxed explicitly to fund roads.

Property tax likewise to pay for roads and how they're used.

Electricity taxes don't go to fund roads or sidewalks, sales tax is likewise not for that.
