In the Netherlands vehicles are taxed at sale, before VAT so VAT is also payed over this tax, based on emissions. Then there is a quarterly tax based on the weight of the car. Currently zero emission cars get a 100% discount on the latter and hybrid get 50% discount. Diesels cost about triple.
Cars in NL are way more expensive then in the neighbouring countries.
