The Skyworth K is an electric SUV made in China. It is a newer name in Singapore, so owners and buyers often look for clear figures. This guide lays out list price, COE, road tax and car insurance.
The insurance prices are examples for one stated driver, as of 1 November 2026. They show the spread between insurers. Your premium depends on your details.
One version on the list
The new-car list read on 2026-10-10 has a single version:
- Skyworth K Electric 86 kWh: SUV, 201bhp (150kW) motor, listed at S$182,888
That list price is as listed on 2026-10-10 and included COE that day. Prices tend to change after each COE round. Ask for the figure in writing and check what it includes.
Our quote form also lists the K 86 kWh, and the Skyworth K price page prices that version.
Getting a COE
The price page sets out the electric car rule. A fully electric Skyworth K needs:
- Category A if its motor is 110kW (147bhp) or less, at S$132,004 in the October 2026 2nd round
- Category B if its motor is more powerful, at S$131,901 in that round
The listed motor is 150kW, which is over the Category A limit. Check the category on the car's papers. The COE page has each round's results.
Road tax on a 150kW motor
Electric cars are taxed on motor power. For the 201bhp (150kW) motor, LTA's formula gives S$1,794.80 a year before any surcharge.
Cars older than ten years pay extra:
- Over 10 years: +10%
- Over 11 years: +20%
- Over 12 years: +30%
- Over 13 years: +40%
- Over 14 years: +50%
That is a fixed yearly cost you pay whatever your mileage. It is more than many petrol cars of a similar size pay, because the formula for electric cars starts from motor power. The road tax page explains how motor power sets the figure.
The standard driver's insurance
The price page uses these details:
- Car: Skyworth K 86 kWh, registered 3 years ago, private use, comprehensive cover
- Driver: aged 40, married, office job, 10 years of driving
- Record: 50% NCD, no claims
- Workshop: authorised, no options
4 insurers price it online. The lowest premium is S$1,097.06 a year. The insurer whose lowest plan is dearest asks at least S$1,789.47. That is S$692.41 more, or 63% on top. Prices include 9% GST.
Three of the four prices are marked as estimates. A few insurers on our panel do not quote electric cars online, and many have no price for this model yet. A short list like this can shift quickly when one insurer updates its rates.
Excess levels
The lowest premium carries a S$600 excess. One plan at S$1,314.63 carries S$900 and uses any workshop. The two dearest plans also carry S$600. So here the lowest premium does not come with a larger excess.
How the price reacts to change
Holding everything else the same, the lowest price for each case:
- No NCD (0%): S$2,309.63, S$1,212.57 more
- 20% NCD: S$1,847.70, S$750.64 more
- Driver aged 27, 3 years' driving, 30% NCD: S$2,238.65, S$1,141.59 more
- Driver aged 65, 20 years' driving: S$1,223.62, S$126.56 more
- A new car: S$1,097.06, the same
- A car 8 years old: S$1,097.06, the same
Losing NCD is the biggest single change, at 111% more. The young driver comes close. The car's age does not move the lowest price at all on these figures.
Bear in mind these are lowest prices only.
Six electric cars side by side
Here are six electric cars from the price page, 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 Skyworth K is 5% below that average. Still, 4 of the six are cheaper to insure on these details, and most have more insurers quoting. The Skyworth car insurance page collects Skyworth entries.
Things to confirm on a quote
With four insurers and mostly estimated prices, a few checks help you read each offer on equal terms.
- Estimates: most prices here are estimates. Confirm the final figure with your own details.
- Battery and charging equipment: ask how each is covered.
- Workshop: check which workshops can repair an electric car of this make.
- NCD: make sure the discount on the quote matches your record. It is worth more than any other single detail here.
Running costs that vary
These change with how you live and drive, so no figures are given.
- Parking: season parking plus other charges.
- Charging: your rate per unit and your mileage.
- ERP: depends on routes and time of day.
- Servicing and warranty: follow the maker's schedule, and ask about the battery warranty.
- Depreciation: what you pay now against what the car is worth later.
