VW is aiming for a new PEOPLE's car, like the old BUG.
So, as they want to sell it in each country, they
just have to make it very atractive for the people.
PLEASE NOTE:
the prices in HOLLAND are normally much higher
as for example Belgium, Germany or any other country.
In the Netherlands there is a TAX which needs to be paid on
every new car when you buy them at your dealer.
Don't know the exact percentage, (depends also on CO2 emission)
but when a car costs for example 7,500.- euro,
we have to pay something like 23% i believe it is,
for owners tax, so we pay after tax 9,225.- euro for it.
Just silly as it sounds, it is only in The Netherlands.
So, i guess the prices in the USA will be actualy even lower !!!!
