How much is new car tax in Chicago?

As of my knowledge cutoff in September 2021, the city of Chicago does not impose a specific new car tax. Vehicle registration fees and taxes in the state of Illinois are administered by the Illinois Secretary of State's office. When registering a new vehicle in Illinois, you'll generally pay the following fees and taxes:

1. Title Fee: This fee is charged for the issuance of a vehicle title. It's a one-time fee and varies based on the vehicle's value.

2. Registration Fee: This annual fee is required for all vehicles registered in Illinois. The registration fee is also based on the vehicle's value.

3. Sales Tax: Illinois charges a sales tax on the purchase of a new car. The sales tax rate varies based on the county in which the vehicle is purchased.

4. Personal Property Tax: Some Illinois counties also levy a personal property tax on vehicles. This tax is assessed annually and based on the vehicle's value as of January 1st.

For specific information about vehicle registration fees and taxes in Chicago or Illinois, I recommend visiting the Illinois Secretary of State's official website or contacting their office.
