Cost of Owning a Car for the First Year in Every State

Owning a car is a necessity for many, but it’s also expensive. Car prices vary, but there are other expenses that add up as well, like taxes and fees, gas, repairs and, of course, insurance. To find out how much it costs to own a car in each state, GOBankingRates looked at the true cost to own a new car for a year in each state.

To compare costs, the survey used the average price of $36,843 for a new car, with a 20% down payment of $7,369. The survey assumed a 60-month loan for someone with good credit, resulting in monthly payments of $598, or $7,176 per year. These costs are fixed and are not shown separately for each state.

That’s the purchase price, but what are the total costs involved in owning a car? The study shows the variable cost to own a car in each state. These include sales tax, insurance premiums, fuel and maintenance and repair costs. Certain fees, such as registration fees and title fees, were included as supplemental data but not factored into the study’s final ranking. The vehicle was assumed to be a Toyota Camry weighing 3,300 pounds, with a 14-gallon gas tank that is filled up once per week. These add up to the total cost of ownership of a new car for the first year, on average. Now, do you know how much it costs to own a car in your state?

Data is accurate as of May 22, 2019, and is subject to change.

50. California — $22,932.58

• Total sales tax paid: $3,500.09
• Annual car insurance premium: $1,518
• Annual gas expenses: $2,984.07 ($4.10 per gallon)
• Annual car maintenance and repair costs: $385.42

California drivers pay the most to operate their vehicles and the reason boils down to two things: gas and taxes. Gas in California averages $4.10 per gallon – by far the highest of any state. In fact, it’s 46 cents per gallon more than the next priciest state. And the state and local sales tax rates add up to 9.5% in Los Angeles, the third-highest of any state.

49. Washington — $22,360.03

• Total sales tax paid: $3,684.30
• Annual car insurance premium: $1,191
• Annual gas expenses: $2,571.30 ($3.53 per gallon)

The only place you get a break is on the $33 annual registration fee.

• Annual car insurance premium: $2,484
• Annual gas expenses: $2,095.18 ($2.87 per gallon)

Colorado state sales tax is only 2.9%, but add on regional transportation district (RTD) tax of 1.1% and Denver city tax of 4.31%, and the cost of your new car in Denver goes up by 8.31%. It’s the fourth-highest tax rate on car sales in the country. On top of all that, residents are required to pay an annual property tax.

44. Rhode Island — $21,286.80

• Annual car insurance premium: $1,242
• Annual gas expenses: $1,915.37 ($2.63 per gallon)
• Annual car maintenance and repair costs: $352.67

If you live in Topeka, Kansas, you’ll pay 6.5% state sales tax plus 1.15% Shawnee County sales tax when you buy your new car. That’s what places Kansas so low on the overall rankings since insurance, gas and repair costs are all in the cheaper half nationwide.

How to Keep Your Car Costs Low

While there may not be a lot you can do about the price of your new car or the sales tax you have to pay, there are ways to spend less to get around. Here are some tips on cutting down the cost of owning a car:

• Buy the right car for your budget. Consider the total cost of car ownership, including all of the factors above, when you are deciding what car to buy.
• Drive safely. Driving at a constant speed, within the speed limit, will improve your gas mileage as well as reduce wear and tear on your vehicle.
• Make sure you have the right insurance coverage. You may be paying for coverage you don’t need, especially if you have an older car that you own outright.
• Check your owner’s manual for the correct maintenance schedule. You want to keep your car running well, but you might be spending more than you should. Most cars no longer need an oil change every 3,000 miles, for example.

Methodology: To generate these rankings, GOBankingRates surveyed and totaled the cost of buying and owning a car for one year in all 50 states. This total included four key car expenses: (1) car sales tax, based on rates provided by individual state and, where applicable, county and local websites; taxes were based on the average car transaction amount of $36,843 in April 2019 as reported by Kelley Blue Book; (2) average annual car insurance premiums, sourced from CarInsurance.com’s 2018 report; (3) average annual gas expenses, based on an average of historical regular gas prices in each state, sourced from AAA’s Fuel Gauge Report on May 7, 2019; the expense was calculated based on the assumption of a driver filling up a 14-gallon tank once a week; (4) average annual car maintenance and repair costs, sourced from CarMD’s 2018 State Repair Cost Rankings. These expenses were combined with the cost to finance a new vehicle — based on a $36,843 MSRP, 20% down payment of $7,369, good credit and 60-month loan, which equates to $598 per month or $7,176 per year — to determine the cost to own a car for a year. GOBankingRates also researched title and registration fees, but with such varying degrees between states’ car excise and personal property tax laws as well as rules for vehicle weight, vehicle age and vehicle cost, GOBankingRates ultimately decided not to include these fees in the study’s final ranking. Instead, these fees were included as supplemental data.

Data is accurate as of May 22, 2019, and is subject to change.
