Authorities decided on Dec 15 to give a 25 percent purchase tax discount for those buying cars with engines no larger than 1.6 liters before 2018. Analysts believe the move will save the auto market from a hard landing in the new year. The purchase tax usually stands at 10 percent of a car's sticker price. To boost stagnant car sales, the authorities introduced a measure in late September 2015 to halve the tax for small cars, which expired on Dec 31, 2016.
