A solution to owning a car in Singapore

Produced by SilverKris for Motorway Car Rentals

You’ve just moved to the Little Red Dot. You’ve found a place, and are comfortably settled in your new job. It’s time to start thinking about a car to get you around the city. While Singapore has excellent public transportation, nothing beats having your own set of wheels so you can explore all the nooks and crannies of your new home.

 At the same time, Singapore is the most expensive country in the world to own a car. The biggest barrier to entry is the Certificate of Entitlement (COE), which grants you the right to own and use a vehicle on the island, but often runs into the high tens of thousands, on top of the cost of the car. Because the COE only lasts 10 years, the value of your car is depreciating with each passing year. On top of that, there’s all the costs involved in owning a car – from insurance premiums and road tax to petrol and parking fees.

What’s more, it’s not always easy or straightforward for foreigners to secure a personal loan. This is especially discouraging if you do not intend to remain in Singapore for the long term.

 Long-term car leasing is your best bet. You get to have your own vehicle, without expensive and bureaucratic barriers such as COE, loans, taxes and insurance. Here’s how it works.


Advantages of leasing a car

“When you lease, you don’t have to worry about insurance and taxes – just rental and gasoline,” says Michael Lim, founder of Motorway Group of Companies.

 When you lease a car with Motorway Car Rentals, you pay one flat fee each month for an all-in-one solution that ensures all the insurance costs, road tax, maintenance and repair fees are covered. This saves you the headache of comparing loan interest rates, or worrying about heavy down payments and out-of-warranty repair costs. Plus, this fee is fixed throughout the duration of your lease so it makes planning your budget that much easier.

In addition, by leasing a car, you get to choose the length of the lease that best suits your needs. Unlike owning a car, leasing a car eliminates any worry about depreciation and the car’s trade-in value. If you’re moving out of Singapore, simply return the car at the end of your contract.
