The price on the windshield is only part of what a car costs you over the years you own it.
What adds up
- Depreciation: the value a car loses, fastest in the first few years
- Interest on the loan
- Insurance, which varies by car, driver and location
- Fuel or charging
- Maintenance, repairs and tires
- Registration, taxes and parking
