But what turns most down is the cost of buying such vehicles from dealer shops.

Nigeria Custom Car Import Duty Tariff

In a move to make Nigerians patronize locally manufactured vehicle, the Nigerian Government raised the tariff on imported cars. This was done in 2014 with the aim of creating employment and a wide range of technologically advanced manufacturing opportunities. 

Even with this move, Nigeria still lags behind in the car manufacturing industry (which is different from cars being assembled in Nigeria) with exception to  Innoson who cannot satisfy Nigeria cars demand for foreign built cars spec, durability and efficiency. This means that, 99% of cars we use in Nigeria are all made abroad and imported into the country.

Clearing imported cars from the Nigerian ports and borders does not come cheap. You must pay the clearance fee to the Nigerian Customs Service (NCS), before you can be allowed to bring your car into the country.
