The Audi SB is not a car you see on new-car lists today. Owners and buyers of one still face the same yearly bills as anyone else: road tax, insurance and the COE question. This guide puts a figure on each where the records allow.
Insurance prices are examples for one stated driver, as of 1 November 2026. They are a guide, not a quote.
Which car this covers
The new-car list has no entry for the Audi SB on sale now. So there is no list price, power figure or body type here.
The price page prices the Audi SB 2.0 TFSI QU S Tronic, with a 1,984cc engine. It is the one version on the quote form. Every figure below is for it.
Certificate of Entitlement
The price page says this car needs a Category B COE. That is because its 1,984cc engine is above 1,600cc.
Category B closed at S$131,901 in the October 2026 2nd round. Results move every round, and the COE page has the latest.
An Audi SB on the road now will carry some COE already. How many years are left shapes what the car is worth to you. When the COE runs out, the owner either renews it for a further term or takes the car off the road. Both choices carry costs that depend on COE results at the time.
Yearly road tax
For a 1,984cc engine, LTA's formula gives S$1,193.34 a year. That is before any age surcharge.
A surcharge applies once the car is past 10 years:
- Over 10 years: +10%
- Over 11 years: +20%
- Over 12 years: +30%
- Over 13 years: +40%
- Over 14 years: +50%
Check the registration date to see which band, if any, applies. The road tax page works out other engines.
Car insurance prices for a typical driver
The Audi SB price page prices this profile:
- 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, with no options
Just 2 insurers price it online. The lower premium is S$1,078.70 a year. The higher is S$1,876, which is S$797.30 more, or 74% on top. Both include 9% GST.
The page lists 17 insurers with no online price. So you can compare 2 out of 19 online.
Two prices, two excesses
The lower premium carries an excess of S$1,200. The higher premium carries S$2,500. Here the lower premium also has the lower excess. That is not always the case, so it is worth noting. Before you compare, check what else differs between the two plans. Look at the workshop terms, any courtesy car and how a windscreen claim is handled.
What moves the premium up or down
The page shows the lowest price when one detail changes:
- No NCD (0%): S$2,481, which is S$1,402.30 more
- 20% NCD: S$1,812.22, S$733.52 more
- Driver aged 27, 3 years' driving, 30% NCD: S$2,710.20, S$1,631.50 more
- Driver aged 65, 20 years' driving: S$1,929.54, S$850.84 more, from just 1 insurer
- A new car, registered this year: S$1,147.53, S$68.83 more
- A car 8 years old: S$1,055.73, S$22.97 less
The young driver pays most, 151% above the standard price. The no-NCD price is not far behind.
An older main driver also pays much more, and only 1 insurer quotes. With no second online price to compare, a 65-year-old owner may need to ask around directly.
The car's age hardly matters. A new car and an 8-year-old car sit within a few dozen dollars of the standard price.
Set against similar two-litre cars
The price page compares six cars with engines of a similar size, for the same driver and car age:
- Lexus NX: S$970.26, 15 insurers
- Lexus RX: S$921.75, 15 insurers
- Mercedes-Benz E-Class: S$857.06, 14 insurers
- BMW 5 Series: S$792.38, 16 insurers
- Toyota Voxy: S$763.41, 14 insurers
- Toyota Harrier: S$763, 15 insurers
Their average lowest price is S$844.64. The Audi SB costs 28% more. All six are cheaper to insure.
The bigger difference is choice. Each rival draws 14 or more insurers. The Audi SB draws 2. A wide field tends to give you more plans, excesses and extras to pick from. Other Audi models are on the Audi car insurance page.
Running costs that are yours to set
- Parking: season parking at home and work, and short stays elsewhere.
- Petrol: depends on your mileage and pump prices.
- ERP: depends on the roads and times you drive.
- Servicing and parts: for a model no longer on sale, ask about parts and who services it.
- Depreciation: turns on what you pay and how much COE is left.
