What Goes Into the Cost of a Car?
Whether you purchase a vehicle new or used, the sticker price is just one part of a car's overall cost. Additionally, the price that you pay for the car varies based on whether you buy it new or used. A new car often has additional taxes and fees that add to its total cost. Other costs to consider are the amount you pay for financing your vehicle, including either a lease or loan. A vehicle's fuel economy also plays a role in its total cost, making buying a fuel-efficient vehicle like the Outback important if you're looking to save money. Reliability is also a key consideration. The cost to repair, service, and maintain the vehicle can vary widely based on the car's service needs, frequency of repairs, and cost of its components.
