Ford road tax in Malaysia is calculated based on engine capacity (cc), vehicle type, and region (Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah/Sarawak, or Langkawi/Pangkor). The cost varies depending on whether the vehicle is a saloon car (sedan/hatchback) or non-saloon (SUV/MPV/pickup). Road tax is paid annually (12 months) or semi-annually (6 months), with the 6-month option costing half of the annual rate plus a small administrative fee.
