Excise tax is based on the Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) the year the car was made. The amount of tax that must be paid is determined by applying a mil rate to the MSRP. The mil rate decreases as a vehicle gets older until the vehicle is in its sixth model year, at which time the excise tax ceases to decrease annually.
