How much does it cost in 2014 for a NY inspection?

As of 2014, the cost of a vehicle inspection in New York depends on several factors such as the size and age of the vehicle. For the average economy car in New York City, the vehicle inspection costs $10, and the emissions testing is $27, for a combined $37 total.

Vehicles must be inspected every 12 months in order to renew registration. Heavy and older vehicles cost more than newer, lighter vehicles. Getting a vehicle inspected outside the New York City metropolitan area decreases the cost of the vehicle emissions inspection. There is no sales tax on inspection fees, and any repairs needed to pass inspection can be completed at a location of the motorist's choosing.
