Recent research indicates that the average CBD worker in Australia spends approximately $14,000 annually on car ownership, with Sydney drivers incurring the highest costs. The study, based on a Toyota Corolla, highlights significant expenses such as petrol, insurance, and tolls. Sydney and Melbourne face steep comprehensive insurance rates, while Adelaide and Perth benefit from fewer tolls. Additionally, on-street parking rates and vehicle maintenance costs vary across cities, impacting overall expenses. Depreciation, not included in the study, further affects ownership costs.
