Premiums for larger and more powerful cars in Category B fell to S$116,988 from S$119,890.
COEs for commercial vehicles, which include goods vehicles and buses, increased to S$63,189 from S$62,590.
Motorcycle premiums dipped by S$2 to S$8,707.
Open category COEs, which can be used for any vehicle type but end up being mainly used for large cars, dropped to S$118,010 from S$118,889.
A total of 4,432 bids were received, with a quota of 3,060 COEs available.
