Short answer: it depends on the vehicle and a few bureaucratic flourishes.
In Western Australia, your registration total is made up of the vehicle licence fee (based largely on vehicle type/weight), the Motor Injury Insurance premium, and a couple of admin charges. Passenger cars pay on a weight-based scale; motorcycles, utes and heavy vehicles have their own schedules. Add-ons like new plates or transfers change the bill, but routine renewals are basically licence fee + MII + admin. Use the WA Department of Transport’s online calculator for your exact figure, then brace your wallet accordingly. If you’re buying a used car, remember you’ll also cop duty and transfer fees separate to rego—because of course you do.
