A European Commission report on car prices showed new car prices converging across the EU, including in new Member States. While price differentials between certain countries, and particularly for certain models, were still significant, the gap was closing. In the euro zone, pre-tax prices were generally lowest in Finland and most expensive in Germany. Looking at the EU as a whole, cars were less expensive on average in the new Member States, with Estonia being the cheapest market.
