Question 1

Can you buy a new sports car with a manual gearbox in the Netherlands?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the BMW M4 Coupé with 480 pk is offered with a six-speed manual. Its Competition versions, with 510 or 530 pk, are automatic.

Question 2

Is there a new electric sports car in the Netherlands?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the Audi e-tron GT, as the quattro, S e-tron GT and RS e-tron GT, all with a 97 kWh battery and up to 843 pk. As an electric car it pays the fixed zero-emission BPM and 70% of the petrol MRB through 2028.

Question 3

How much BPM does a new sports car pay in the Netherlands?

Accepted Answer

It is already in the list price and rises steeply with WLTP CO₂: above 155 g/km each extra gram costs more than in any lower band. A powerful petrol coupé therefore carries far more BPM than a lighter-footed version of the same car.

Question 4

Does horsepower affect road tax on a sports car in the Netherlands?

Accepted Answer

No, the quarterly MRB reads only massa rijklaar and fuel, plus your province's opcenten, so a light 911 can pay less than a heavy family SUV. Power counts only indirectly, through the CO₂ that sets the BPM.
