    The classification of buying a car as an asset or a liability depends on its use and impact on your finances. In many cases, buying a car is considered a liability because it typically involves ongoing expenses like fuel, maintenance, insurance, and depreciation in value. However, if the car is used for income-generating purposes or appreciates in value over time, it can be viewed as an asset. The most apt classification depends on how you utilize the car in your financial context.
