- thawaya3113 4y agoI’m pretty sure anyone buying a scooter would also be paying sales tax, plus taxes on fuel and electricity. The only difference is a property tax of 2.5% assessed every year. That being said, I would be surprised if this 2.5% property tax didn’t apply to car rental companies cars as well.
