According to the decision published in the Official Newspaper with the approval of the President on Monday, August 31, 2020, changes were made in the SCT rate and base in an automobile purchase. The SCT rate in imported luxury cars was increased to reduce automobile imports, which harmed the current account deficit and to support the domestic manufacturer. With this new regulation, it is aimed to save foreign currency and reduce foreign expenses. After the increase, automobile companies started to update their price lists according to the latest change. Accordingly, the new prices of the cheapest models of automobile brands were as follows.
