Are Toyota, Fiat, Volkswagen and Ford cars exempt from IPVA? Learn more about the law that exempts cars from IPVA after 20 years and which models are included in the rules.
With the month of January, the new year usually leaves drivers apprehensive about the need to pay the Motor Vehicle Property Tax (IPVA). However, in some states in Brazil, cars from Toyota, Fiat, Volkswagen and Ford that are 20 years old are exempt from the tax. In this article, we will list cars that are exempt from IPVA starting in 2025. Doing the math, starting next year, models manufactured up to 2005 will no longer need to pay the tax, but will only be required to pay the license fee. Therefore, we have separated around 05 cars from Toyota, Fiat, Volkswagen and Ford sold in Brazil that will no longer be required to pay the annual IPVA contribution starting next year.
VW CrossFox
To start the list of cars without IPVA, we have the Fox, one of Volkswagen's most promising models in Brazil during the last decade.
However, another segment that was growing was that of urban adventurers, which required the brand to find an immediate response: the CrossFox. With a more muscular look and even a spare tire on the trunk lid, The model launched in 2005 was a success and will soon be one of the cars without IPVA.

Fiat Idea
Still talking about the last decade, a segment that had not yet been swallowed up by SUVs was that of minivans.
In a family segment contested by Honda Fit and Chevy Meriva, Fiat responded by launching the Idea. Arriving with bright colors and even a sunroof, it was modern compared to its rivals and is also on the list of cars from Toyota, Fiat, Volkswagen and Ford that will turn 20 in 2025.
206 Peugeot SW
A segment that is practically extinct in Brazil is the station wagon segment. Although they are beginning to disappear from the market, Peugeot offered an alternative for families, originating from the 206 hatchback. The SW version, which is one of the cars without IPVA, had a trunk and a well-resolved look, with even the adventurous Escapade version, with a slightly more robust look.
Toyota “New Hilux”
With the arrival of 2005, the seventh generation of the Hilux pickup truck also arrived. With a design inspired by the Corolla mid-size sedan, the model had more rounded lines, in contrast to the previous square look. This is one of the cars from Toyota, Fiat, Volkswagen and Ford that will be exempt, delivering a 3.0 turbodiesel engine with 163 horsepower that gave the pickup more power, even running alongside the Corolla, for example.
toyota sw4
To finish the list of cars without IPVA, we have another Toyota model that turns 20 in 2025. It is the “new” Toyota SW4, the SUV version of the midsize pickup, which had left the Brazilian market in 2002, returning three years later with a new generation. Equally robust as the pickup, it has a more urban and luxurious appeal, but maintaining the same mechanical reliability as always.
How does the exemption for cars without IPVA work?
The payment of IPVA depends on the date of manufacture of the cars. This means that cars that left the factory a few years ago are completely exempt from paying this debt. However, the age of Toyota, Fiat, Volkswagen and Ford cars exempt from tax varies depending on the Brazilian state.
Most states offer exemption from IPVA for cars manufactured over 15 years ago. In addition to the Federal District, those that meet this requirement are The states of Amazonas, Bahia, Ceara, Espirito Santo, Goiás, Maranhao, Pará, Paraiba, Piauí, Rio de Janeiro, Rondônia and Sergipe are the most populous.
In the state of Mato Grosso, the production date for cars without IPVA is a little later, starting at 18 years old. On the other hand, car owners in Acre, Paraná, Mato Grosso do Sul, Rio Grande do Sul and São Paulo stop paying the tax when their car is 20 years old.
