What the latest movement means
A lower COE premium does not guarantee an equal reduction in a vehicle’s advertised or final price. Compare the complete purchase and ownership budget, including the vehicle price, registration-related taxes and fees, motor insurance, financing cost, road tax, servicing, parking, fuel or charging expenses, and any conditions attached to dealer packages, rebates or trade-ins.
In percentage terms, Category A recorded the largest decline at about 2.3%, followed by Category C at about 1.2% and Category B at about 0.8%. The latest result only partly reversed the gains from the 8 Jul 2026 bidding exercise: all five categories remained above their levels in the 17 Jun 2026 bidding exercise, while Categories D and E extended their increases.
Historical context and recent pattern 📈
The 22 Jul pullback followed record highs in Category A at S$129,000 and Category C at S$95,000 during the 8 Jul 2026 bidding exercise. Category A is now S$3,000 below that peak but remains the fourth-highest result in LTA’s historical workbook from 2010 onwards. Category C is S$1,111 below its record and remains the third-highest result over the same period.
Category B at S$129,890 remains S$20,111 below its peak of S$150,001, while Category E is S$28,033 below its S$158,004 peak. Both records were set during the 18 Oct 2023 bidding exercise. Category D remains S$2,987 below its motorcycle peak of S$13,189 from the 9 Nov 2022 bidding exercise.
