Car salespeople store more cars because of the increase in the number of bpm now

Car salespeople suffer tens of thousands of additional losses as a result of the increase in the vehicle tax (bpm), which begins on January 1. This gives new car buyers the opportunity to apply a discount in the coming months.

De Telegraaf reports on Saturday after a survey of industry associations.

The Bovag sectoral organizations and the RAI Association assume the new regulations on BPM will cost from hundreds to thousands of euros.

Car dealers are now buying additional vehicles because the old rules still apply to the current stock and can therefore be sold at a lower price. That's why sellers have sold about 90,000 cars.

"If you're thinking of looking now, you can get a benefit," a Bovag spokesman said on a daily basis. The RAI Association explains why dealers and importers tend to lower prices slightly: "A stock costs money and no one wants to have a large stock."
