Some words are omitted because it is obvious what they are. You can't add "as" without the phrase or clause that goes after it.

Dear friend,

I think 'twice as much" mean double is the best choice because 'twice as much as" used when we want to compare this thing to another specific one. For example : I would have paid twice as much as it was/ previous car for my car if the salesman had insisted

I hope my answer will satisfy you.

Best wishes,
