How Impozit auto (car tax) in Romania is calculated
Romania levies its annual car tax locally, based purely on engine displacement. The tax is charged per 200 cm3 fraction, and the per-fraction rate steps up sharply with engine size.
A small engine pays 8 RON per fraction, but a 3-litre-plus engine pays 345 RON per fraction, so large cars cost far more. Municipalities index the figures. Estimate, not tax advice.

| Inputs | |
|---|---|
| Capacitate cilindrică (cm³) | 1,400 |
| Computed by the engine | |
| Fracțiuni de 200 cm³ ✓ pinned | 7 |
| Rată (RON / fracțiune) ✓ pinned | 8 |
| Impozit anual ✓ pinned | 56 RON |
Every computed row comes from the engine, run on the inputs above. Rows marked ✓ pinned are also fixed by a published self-test, so a change to the model that moved them would fail its own tests.
Frequently asked questions
How much car tax for a 1,400 cm3 car in Romania?
That is 7 fractions of 200 cm3 at 8 RON each, so 56 RON a year. A 2,500 cm3 car pays 13 fractions at 85 RON, so 1,105 RON.
Why does the tax jump so much for big engines?
The per-fraction rate rises from 8 to 345 RON across the size bands, so displacement above 3 litres is taxed very heavily.
Who sets the exact amount?
The local council, which indexes the national table, so the figure varies slightly by locality.
