This is an approximation: in Morocco, fiscal power cannot simply be derived from engine size. The value on your registration card is the one that counts. See published values by model

Calculate your car or motorcycle's fiscal power based on its engine size. Essential for estimating your taxes (vignette, registration card).
Formula: Fiscal CV = Engine Size (cm³) ÷ 200
Your engine's displacement in cm³ (found on the registration card)
Actual power in horsepower (for information only)
Here are some examples of vehicles with their engine size and calculated fiscal power:
| Type | Brand | Model | Engine Size | Fiscal CV | Power |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Car | Dacia | Logan | 1200 cm³ | 6 CV | 75 ch |
Car | Renault | Clio | 1500 cm³ | 8 CV | 90 ch |
Car | Peugeot | 208 | 1600 cm³ | 8 CV | 110 ch |
Car | Toyota | Corolla | 1800 cm³ | 9 CV | 122 ch |
Car | BMW | X5 | 3000 cm³ | 15 CV | 265 ch |
Motorcycle | Honda | PCX 125 | 125 cm³ | 1 CV | 12 ch |
Motorcycle | Yamaha | MT-07 | 689 cm³ | 4 CV | 75 ch |
Motorcycle | Kawasaki | Z900 | 948 cm³ | 5 CV | 125 ch |
Motorcycle | BMW | R1250 GS | 1254 cm³ | 7 CV | 136 ch |
Fiscal power is a crucial element for calculating automotive taxes in Morocco. Unlike the actual engine power (measured in DIN HP or kilowatts), fiscal power is an administrative calculation based solely on engine displacement.
• Annual vignette calculation
• Registration card fee calculation
• Insurance cost estimation
• Administrative classification of the vehicle
Fiscal power (fiscal CV) is an administrative measure used in Morocco to calculate certain taxes such as the vignette and the registration card. It is calculated based on the engine's displacement.
In Morocco, the simplified formula is: Fiscal CV = Engine Size (cm³) ÷ 200. For example, a 1600 cm³ engine will give 1600/200 = 8 Fiscal CV.
No, the calculation formula is identical for cars and motorcycles. However, since motorcycles generally have a smaller engine size, their fiscal power is often lower.
The engine size is indicated on the vehicle's registration card (line P.2), in the owner's manual, or on the manufacturer's website. It is expressed in cm³ (cubic centimeters).
Actual power (in DIN HP or kW) measures engine performance. Fiscal power is an administrative calculation based on engine size, used only for taxes. A turbo engine can have high actual power but low fiscal power.
Fiscal power does not reflect the actual performance of the vehicle. A modern turbocharged engine can have low fiscal power (small engine size) but excellent actual power.
Example: A Peugeot 208 1.2 PureTech (1200 cm³) has 6 fiscal CV but develops 110 actual horsepower!
