Buying a new mini city car in Israel

Our catalogue lists 13 mini city cars, half of them under ₪140,000: Leapmotor T03 (around ₪93,000), Kia Picanto (₪100,000), BYD Dolphin Surf (₪115,000), Toyota Aygo X. It is the most affordable category in the new car market.

The range is split between electric (5), hybrid (4) and petrol (4). For mostly urban driving with easy charging, electric is the cheapest to run day to day; for longer journeys, a hybrid takes charging out of the equation.

Olim: the benefit on a small car

An oleh does not pay purchase tax, but the benefit only applies to one car per household. On a small car, the saving in shekels is lower than on a family car. If you plan to buy a bigger car later, it may be better to keep the benefit for that one. We work it out with you.
