Land Rover road tax in Malaysia is calculated based on engine capacity (cc) and vehicle classification (saloon or non-saloon). Most Land Rover models, such as the Range Rover, Discovery, and Defender, fall under the non-saloon category due to their SUV classification. Road tax rates are higher for non-saloon vehicles compared to saloon cars. The cost is determined by a base rate plus a progressive rate for every cc above specific thresholds.

How Much Does Land Rover Road Tax Cost for 6 Months and 12 Months?
Land Rover road tax is paid annually, but owners can opt for 6-month or 12-month renewals. The cost varies significantly depending on engine size.
For example, the 2024 Land Rover Range Rover Evoque P200 SE (M-Spec) with a 2.0L engine (1,999 cc) incurs a 12-month road tax of RM 438.80 in Peninsular Malaysia. A 6-month payment would be approximately half, though slight administrative fees may apply.
In contrast, the 2023 Land Rover Range Rover HSE with a 4.4L V8 engine (4,395 cc) has a 12-month road tax of RM 3,872.00 due to its larger displacement.
Are There Different Road Tax Rates for East Malaysia and Duty-Free Zones?
Road tax rates in East Malaysia (Sabah and Sarawak) and duty-free islands (Langkawi, Labuan, and Pangkor) are lower than in Peninsular Malaysia. Vehicles registered in these areas pay 50% of the standard road tax.
For instance, the Range Rover Velar P250 SE (2.0L, 1,997 cc) would cost RM 219.40 for 12 months in Langkawi instead of RM 438.80.
How Is Road Tax Calculated for Electric Land Rover Models?
Electric Land Rover models, such as the upcoming Range Rover EV, are exempt from road tax until December 31, 2025, under Malaysia’s incentive for battery electric vehicles (BEVs). After this period, road tax will be calculated based on motor power output (kW) instead of engine capacity.
What Is the Cost of Land Rover Insurance in Malaysia?
Land Rover insurance premiums depend on factors like model, age, coverage type, and no-claim discount (NCD). Comprehensive insurance for a 2023 Range Rover HSE can exceed RM 65,000 annually, while smaller models like the Evoque may cost RM 8,000 to RM 12,000 per year.
Owners must renew insurance before road tax renewal, as a valid cover note is mandatory. Third-party insurance is cheaper but offers limited protection.
Where Can Land Rover Owners Check and Renew Road Tax?
Road tax can be renewed online via JPJ’s MySIKAP portal, MyEG, or the MyJPJ app. Physical renewals are available at JPJ offices or Pos Malaysia branches. Required documents include the vehicle registration card (VOC), insurance cover note, and identification.
For verification, owners can check road tax status via JPJ’s website by entering their vehicle registration number.
