AN ACT CONCERNING THE SALES PRICE THRESHOLD OF MOTOR VEHICLES SUBJECT TO A HIGHER SALES AND USE TAXES RATE.

HB 5005 increases the sales price threshold for motor vehicles subject to a 7.75% sales and use tax rate from $75,000 to "more than $75,000." This means vehicles priced at $75,000 or below will now pay the standard tax rate, while those exceeding $75,000 will be taxed at the higher rate. The bill directly affects high-end vehicle buyers and dealers selling vehicles above this new threshold. It makes no changes to the tax rate itself but adjusts which vehicles qualify for the higher rate.
