Members at Large from It costs to drive a guzzler By DEB van der GRACHT VICTORIA (UPC) - B.C. drivers who. buy gas guzziers will now pay 4 per cent more in sales tax than if they purchase a fuel efficient automobile. Finance Minister Hugh Curtis announced in his budget recently that cars that get 8.5 or less litres per 100 kilometers [or 33 or more miles to the gallon) according to federal tran- sport department ratings will be taxed at a reduced 2 per cent rate. People purchasing automobiles with a mid- range efficiency rating of between 8.5 and 13 litres per 100 kms (22 to 33 miles per gallon) will pay the generally applied 4-percent sales tax. But those’ British Columbians who insist on driving cars that consume more than 13 litres of gasoline every 100 kms (less than 22 miles per gallon) will be penalized 2 per cent, paying a higher tax rate of 6 per cent, Curtis said.
