How Much Do Car Resellers Earn?

In Uzbekistan, brand-new cars from dealerships immediately end up with resellers, who make a profit of $750 to $1,500 per vehicle.

If these earnings were taxed properly — with 12% VAT and 15% corporate tax, the state budget would receive over $20 million annually in additional revenue.

This situation also hurts UzAuto Motors. Instead of freely selling cars at market prices, the company is forced to redesign models to discreetly increase prices, as seen with the Cobalt.

As a result, the biggest profits go to resellers, while regular buyers are forced to overpay at car markets and incur extra costs for documentation. Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
