BMW X5: the tax to register it in 31 countries

Computed for the xDrive40i 340 hp, as it left the showroom: list price €82,000, first registered in 2024. Inside the EU there is no duty and no VAT on a used car, so what is left is the registration tax each country charges — and in most of them that figure does not depend on the price at all.
