Budget 2026: Car scrap value cut in half. Renew COE, scrap or switch to EV?
Q: What happens to the supply of younger used cars in the resale market?
The supply of used cars depends on consumer sentiment; if new cars are less attractive, current owners may hold onto their cars longer, leading to fewer early exits from the market.
Budget 2026: Car scrap value cut in half. Renew COE, scrap or switch to EV?
Q: In practical dollar terms, what does this PARF reduction mean for car owners?
