Budget 2022: SST exemption extended again to June 30, 2022 – 100% on new CKD cars, 50% for CBU

The government has announced that the current sales tax (SST) exemption for new vehicles has again been extended through to June 30, 2022.

The sales tax exemption currently in place for Malaysian consumers was first announced in June 2020, which came as part of the Penjana stimulus package to mitigate the effects of the first movement control order, which took place from March last year.

Originally scheduled to end on December 31 last year, the SST exemption was first extended to June 30, 2021, and then to December 31, 2021.

As before, the percentage of SST exemption remains unchanged from what was announced before, with 100% exemption for locally-assembled (CKD) cars and 50% for fully-imported (CBU) cars. The exemption has resulted in reduced prices for passenger cars, although pick-up trucks are not eligible as they are classified as commercial vehicles

    100% duties waive for EV, including road tax. Subsidising the riches?

      Time to use this opportunity to get the game changing Perodua Ativa with AEB and award winning DNGA which will ensure your safety when you balik kampung! The extra cash can be used to get some game changing gear up bodykits so you can balik kampung with style!!

        • thats the point to reduce carbon emissions over time. Not right away . After years come when everything is ready for zero emissions government can ban petrol car and truck.

      Even with SST exemption,can our YB Menteri kindly explain why the price of the smallest compact car Axia 1.0 Auto still cost a mind boggling RM37,000?
      In Covidian times,before all the talk of electric cars come to fruition,lets go down to the bread and butter car..the Axia.The new Iriz 1.3 as also into the $40K category.
      Even for retirees stuck with a boneshaker,buying an Axia is simply out of reach with such a high price tag.

        At less than rm30k, can still get a new Axia E manual, but this version is considered as in the ‘kosong’ or minimal accessories & features category.

            sabrikor, any able bodied person with proper driving school training should be able to handle a simple basic car like the Axia E on the public roads. if unable to operate the manual gearbox, then considered as ‘less skilled’.

        Why buy new Axia or Iriz if you already retired? Just buy the used one pun okay and cheaper

          Used cars not cheap also..there is no such thing as buy and drive no need repair.The repairs can range from 5k to 15 K depending what rosak. Doesnt mean retired people cant buy new car,but at what price,for a tin kosong car?
          Maybe you retire with used protong Saga.,not me.

      • LOL you should ask Perodua that since no one can blame taxes in this case as Axia gets 100% SST free.

    SST should be abolished forever so that take home pay for gov servants/people can be slightly increased on monthly basis, no need to raise salary if gov/employer cannot afford it.

    All EV are so expensive. Only rich folks can afford. Common sense dictated that EV is most suitable for folks earning low wages. Why Malaysia government gives rich folks tax exemption for buying EV? Surely these rich folks can afford paying cheap subsidized petrol in Malaysia.
