How are car loans in Michigan calculated?

Michigan includes the sale price and the doc fee in the taxable amount of an auto loan but does not include up to $5000 of the trade-in value.

Therefore, car buyers get a tax break on trade-in vehicles in Michigan up to a maximum of $5000.

Consumer Advice

Prepaid maintenance plans, extended warranties, and GAP insurance are not taxed in Michigan and provide considerable savings over paying down the road. You can include maintenance on the warranty line of the calculator for accurate handling.

The documentation fee is set by the dealer, but is not negotiable so expect it on the purchase agreement. The customary doc fee of $220 is the maximum allowed by the State of Michigan for vehicles priced over $4400. The maximum doc fee for vehicles under $4400 is 5% of the sale price.

EV surcharges are levied to offset declining fuel tax revenue. Add $135 to the SOS fees for electric vehicles and $47.50 for hybrids.
