HAWAII TARGETS VEHICLE ENGINE SIZE FOR ADDITIONAL FEE

Legislation has been introduced in the Hawaii House of Representatives to establish a progressive fee for state motor vehicles based on engine size. These fees would be collected by the state at the time of initial vehicle registration and at subsequent renewals of registration.

These fees would be in addition to fees and taxes normally required for registration or renewal. The measure would tax vehicle owners with an engine size greater than 200 cu. cm., and the fee would increase depending on engine displacement.
