SINGAPORE – The Certificate of Entitlement (COE) premium for Category A vehicles hit an all-time high of $139,001 on Nov 4, eclipsing the previous record of $133,009 set on Sept 9 .

Category A COEs – meant for smaller, less powerful cars and electric vehicles (EVs) – increased 5.3% from the previous price of $132,004 .

This also marks the first time that the COE price for Category A has outstripped that of Category E.

Category B COE premiums – used to register larger, more powerful cars and EVs – also increased, but more modestly, from $131,901 to $132,334 – a 0.3% increase.

The only other COE category to post an increase in prices was for Category E or the open category.

It increased by 0.2%, from $135,790 to $135,998.

Open category certificates are transferable and can be used to register any vehicle type except motorcycles. Motor traders often secure them for the flexibility to register cars without waiting for the next tender exercise.

The price of a commercial vehicle certificate dipped by 0.2% from $92,200 to $92,000.

Motorcycle COEs closed at $10,689 – 0.8% lower than the $10,778 at the previous exercise.

The latest COE results come after the Land Transport Authority (LTA) closed its public consultation exercise on COE categorisation on Nov 2.

The exercise was to gather feedback on a proposed review of the COE system, which is expected to be completed by the first half of 2027.

Besides proposing a merger of the two car categories, other suggested changes include a fee and rebate system, in which buyers of higher-value cars will pay higher premiums compared to those who purchase mass-market options.

新加坡——11月4日，A类车辆的拥车证（COE）保费达到139,001美元的历史新高，超过了9月9日创下的133,009美元的纪录。

A类拥车证（COE）——适用于较小、动力较弱的汽车和电动汽车（EV）——比之前的价格132,004美元上涨了5.3%。

这也标志着 A 类拥车证价格首次超过 E 类拥车证价格。

B类拥车证溢价（用于注册更大、更强大的汽车和电动汽车）也有所上涨，但涨幅较为温和，从131,901美元涨至132,334美元，涨幅为0.3%。

除E类或开放类别外，唯一价格上涨的拥车证类别是E类。

增长了0.2%，从135790美元增至135998美元。

开放式车辆登记证可以转让，可用于登记除摩托车以外的任何类型的车辆。汽车经销商通常会申请此类登记证，以便灵活地登记车辆，无需等待下一次招标。

商用车辆证书的价格从 92,200 美元下降了 0.2%，至 92,000 美元。

摩托车拥车证价格收于 10,689 美元，比上次交易的 10,778 美元下跌 0.8%。

最新的拥车证（COE）评定结果出炉，此前陆路交通管理局（LTA）于11月2日结束了关于拥车证分类的公众咨询活动。

此次活动的目的是收集对卓越中心系统拟议审查的反馈意见，该审查预计将于 2027 年上半年完成。

除了提议将两类汽车合并外，其他建议的改变还包括费用和返利制度，其中购买高价值汽车的买家将比购买大众市场车型的买家支付更高的保费。
