The number of cars subject to luxury tax decreased threefold over the year
According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, 504 vehicles subject to luxury tax were imported into the country last year.
This is the lowest figure in the last five years. Porsche and Mercedes-Benz account for 89% of luxury vehicles, and every second such car is a Porsche Taycan. In total, electric cars account for 65% of all cars subject to luxury tax.
504 cars subject to the “luxury tax” were imported into Ukraine in 2025. This is 3.2 times less than in 2024. Overall, this is the lowest figure in the last five years.
Every second car on the “luxury” list is a Porsche Taycan: 232 cars. Overall, Porsche became the leader in the luxury segment with additional taxation: cars of this brand account for 64% of the total volume. Mercedes-Benz took another quarter of the market with 126 cars. The rest of the premium brands together account for 11% of the market: Audi, Rolls-Royce, Aston Martin, Lamborghini, Maserati, etc.
It is worth noting that, in contrast to overall imports, electric cars dominate the premium segment: 65% of imported luxury cars. Another 18% are hybrids that can run on electricity as well as gasoline or diesel. Pure gasoline cars, the leaders in overall imports, are at the bottom of the list with 17%. Diesel accounts for a symbolic 0.4%.
Almost half of all luxury cars are registered in Kyiv and the surrounding region: 236 cars. Another 52 cars are in Lviv region, 49 in Odesa region, and 37 in Dnipropetrovsk region.
Most of the cars in the luxury segment are registered to individuals — 82% or 413 cars. Only 18% of such cars are registered to businesses.
The ultra-premium segment deserves special attention. Last year, 21 Rolls-Royces were imported into Ukraine. Fifteen of them are the electric Spectre model, which costs about $600,000. The registry also includes seven Aston Martins and two Lamborghinis.
It should be noted that the “luxury tax” applies to cars costing more than UAH 3.2 million and less than 5 years old. The tax amount for one such car is UAH 25,000 per year.
