An electric sports car with a price tag well above half a million dollars draws a narrow group of buyers. If you are one of them, the running costs still deserve a look. This guide covers the Audi RS e-tron GT's list price, COE, road tax and car insurance.
Insurance prices here are examples for one stated driver, as of 1 November 2026. They are not a quote. Your own details set your own price.
The version on sale
The new-car list read on 2026-10-10 shows one version. It is the Audi RS e-tron GT Electric qu 93 kWh, with a 590bhp motor. The list calls it a sports car, made in Germany.
The quote form prices the same car, the RS e-tron GT qu 93 kWh. So the insurance figures below match the version on sale.
Price on the list
The RS e-tron GT was listed at S$580,000 on 2026-10-10. That figure included COE as listed that day.
List prices change after each COE round. Ask for a current figure, and check what it includes, before you compare offers.
The COE rule for an electric car
For electric cars, the COE category follows motor power, not engine size. The price page sets out the rule:
- Category A if the motor is 110kW (147bhp) or less. It closed at S$132,004 in the October 2026 2nd round.
- Category B if the motor is more powerful. It closed at S$131,901 in the same round.
The price page gives the rule and leaves the sum to you. The listed motor is 590bhp, far past the Category A limit. The COE page has the latest round's results.
Road tax runs on motor power
Electric cars pay road tax on the motor's power. A powerful motor pays a lot.
For the 590bhp (440kW) motor, LTA's formula gives S$6,369.50 a year, before any age surcharge. That is one of the larger road tax bills on any car.
Cars over 10 years old pay a surcharge on top:
- Over 10 years: +10%
- Over 11 years: +20%
- Over 12 years: +30%
- Over 13 years: +40%
- Over 14 years: +50%
The road tax page works out other motors and engines.
Car insurance for the standard driver
The Audi RS e-tron GT price page prices one set of details:
- The car: registered 3 years ago, private use, comprehensive cover
- The driver: aged 40, married, office job, 10 years' driving
- The record: 50% no-claim discount (NCD), no claims
- Repairs: at an authorised workshop, no options added
Only 3 insurers price it online. The lowest premium is S$2,337.31 a year. Two plans share that exact figure. The dearest of the three asks at least S$3,858.62. That is S$1,521.31 more, or 65% on top. All prices include 9% GST.
Every plan on the page carries an excess of S$600. So the gap between plans is in the premium, not the excess.
All three prices are marked as estimates. The page lists 16 more insurers with no online price for this car. Out of 19 on the panel, that is a thin field.
What changes the price, and what does not
The page shows the lowest price when one thing changes:
- No NCD (0%): S$4,674.61, which is S$2,337.30 more
- 20% NCD: S$3,739.68, S$1,402.37 more
- Driver aged 27, 3 years' driving, 30% NCD: S$3,272.22, S$934.91 more
- Driver aged 65, 20 years' driving: S$2,337.31, the same
- A new car, registered this year: S$2,337.31, the same
- A car 8 years old: S$2,337.31, the same
The NCD does almost all the work here. Lose it, and the lowest price doubles, a rise of 100%. Driver age and car age leave the lowest price where it was.
That pattern tells you something. For this car, your no-claim record is the main lever you control. Protecting it is worth thinking about when you compare plans.
Set beside other electric cars
The price page compares six electric cars, for the same driver and car age:
- BMW iX1: S$1,907.27
- BYD Sealion 7: S$1,390.72
- Tesla Model Y: S$939.71
- BYD Atto 3: S$913.63
- Tesla Model 3: S$913.62
- BYD M6: S$861.41
Their average lowest price is S$1,154.39. The RS e-tron GT costs 102% more than that. All six are cheaper to insure.
Most of those cars also have far more insurers pricing them, up to 10. That gives their owners more plans to choose from. Other Audi models are on the Audi car insurance page.
Costs set by how you live
These depend on you, so no single figure fits:
- Charging: home charging, if your building has it, or public chargers. Rates vary by place and time.
- Parking: season parking at home and at work, plus short stays.
- ERP: depends on your routes and when you drive.
- Servicing and tyres: electric cars still need tyres, brakes and checks. Ask what the battery warranty covers and for how long.
- Depreciation: turns on what you pay and what the car fetches later.
