automobile; hearse. (a) On passenger
automobiles as defined in section 168.002, subdivision 24, and hearses, except
as otherwise provided, the registration tax is calculated as:
(1) $10; plus an additional
tax equal to
(2) 1.25 percent of the base value
manufacturer's suggested retail price of the vehicle, subject to the
adjustments in paragraphs (f) and (g).
(b) Subject to the classification
provisions herein, "Base value" means the manufacturer's suggested
retail price of the vehicle including destination charge using list price
information published by the manufacturer or determined by the registrar if no
suggested retail price exists, and shall The registration tax
calculation does not include the cost of each accessory or item of optional
equipment separately added to the vehicle and the manufacturer's
suggested retail price, and does not include a destination charge, except
for a vehicle previously registered in Minnesota prior to the effective date of
this section.
(c) In the case of the first
registration of a new vehicle sold or leased by a licensed dealer, the dealer
may elect to individually determine the base value of registration
tax on the vehicle using manufacturer's suggested retail price
information provided by the manufacturer.
The registrar must use the base value determined by the dealer to
properly classify the vehicle. A
dealer that elects to make the determination must retain a copy of the
suggested retail price label or other supporting documentation with the vehicle

(d) If unable to determine the base value
because the vehicle is specially constructed, or for any other reason, the
registrar may establish such value upon the cost price to the purchaser or
owner as evidenced by a certificate of cost but not including Minnesota sales
or use tax or any local sales or other local tax.
(e)
The registrar shall classify every vehicle in its proper base value class as
follows:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|

and thereafter a series of classes successively set in
brackets having a spread of $200 consisting of such number of classes as will
permit classification of all vehicles.
(f) The base value for purposes of this
section shall be the middle point between the extremes of its class.
(g) (d) The registrar shall
must establish the base value, when new, of every passenger
automobile and hearse registered prior to the effective date of Extra Session
Laws 1971, chapter 31, registration tax using: (1) the amount determined by a licensed
dealer under paragraph (c), if determined; (2) list price information
published by the manufacturer or any nationally recognized firm or association
compiling such data for the automotive industry; or (3) the retail price
label as provided by the manufacturer under United States Code, title 15,
section 1232. If unable to ascertain
the base value of any registered vehicle in the foregoing manner, the registrar
may use any other available source or method.
(e) The registrar shall must
calculate the registration tax using base value information
available to dealers and deputy registrars at the time the initial
application for registration is submitted.
The tax on all previously registered vehicles shall be computed upon
the base value thus determined taking into account the depreciation provisions
of paragraph (h). Except for data
integrity purposes, the commissioner must not adjust the manufacturer's
suggested retail price or destination charge for the vehicle in a subsequent
registration period.
(h) (f) The annual
additional tax calculation under paragraph (a), clause (2), must be computed
upon adjusted based on a percentage of the base value identified
amount, as follows: during the first
year of vehicle life, upon 100 percent of the base value amount;
for the second year, 90 percent of such value the amount; for the
third year, 80 percent of such value the amount; for the fourth
year, 70 percent of such value the amount; for the fifth year,
60 percent of such value the amount; for the sixth year, 50
percent of such value the amount; for the seventh year, 40 percent
of such value the amount; for the eighth year, 30 percent of such
value the amount; for the ninth year, 20 percent of such
value the amount; and for the tenth year, ten percent of such
value; the amount.
(g) For the 11th and each succeeding
year, the sum of calculation under paragraph (a), clause (2), must be
adjusted to $25.
(i) In no event shall the annual
additional tax be less than $25.
(j) (h) For any vehicle
previously registered in Minnesota and regardless of prior ownership, the total
amount due under this subdivision and subdivision 1m must not exceed the
smallest total amount previously paid or due on the vehicle.
(i) Nothing in this subdivision prevents
collection of a tax or fee that for data integrity purposes the commissioner
determines is due for a current or prior registration period.
EFFECTIVE DATE. This section is effective January 1, 2021, or upon completion of the necessary programming changes to the replacement motor vehicle title and registration information system, whichever is earlier, and applies to taxes payable for a registration period starting on or after that date.
