If ARF rebates are enjoyed at the point of registration of the natural-gas driven, electric or hybrid car, the ARF paid is the prevailing ARF rate at the point of registration, less the rebates received.

The road tax of an electric car is based on the maximum motor power rating as specified by its manufacturer. It will be determined from the correlation table below. A hybrid car has both conventional gasoline engine and electric motor. Thus, the road tax payable is the higher of the two i.e. based either on the engine capacity or the maximum motor power rating. The correlation table was established by:

Example :
If a cars engine capacity is 1,490cc and has a maximum motor power rating of 33kW, the road tax from 1 July 2008 will be as follows:
Computation based on engine capacity
| Road Tax | = [$250 + 0.375 (1,490 1,000)] x 0.782 |
| = [$250 + 0.375 (490)] x 0.782 | |
| = [$250 + 183.75] x 0.782 | |
| = $433.75 x 0.782 | |
| = $340 |
Computation based on maximum motor power rating
| Road Tax | = [$250 + 6(33 32.5)] x 0.782 |
| = [$250 + 6(0.5)] x 0.782 | |
| = [$250 + 3] x 0.782 | |
| = $253 x 0.782 | |
| = $198 |
Therefore the road tax for an electric car is $198 (for 6 months) or $396 (for 12 months)
The road tax for a hybrid car is $340 (for 6 months) or $680 (for 12 months)
