Select something where id = max(id)

[Anon]

I want to select:
select id, car1 + car2 as Totalcar from $table where id = max(id)

What is the correct query?
How do I select something where the id (primary key) is the hightest.

Thank you

This should work for you:

SELECT id, car1 + car2 AS Totalcar FROM $table ORDER BY id DESC LIMIT 1;
