HMRC have published new advisory fuel rates for company car drivers which apply from 1 March 2022.
All rates have remained the same, including those for electric cars, with the exception of the rate for smaller-engined LPG cars which has been reduced. With the current rising cost of fuel it seems likely that the rates may increase when they next change, on 1 June 2022.
The new rates per mile are:
Engine size |
Petrol |
Diesel |
LPG |
Electric* |
1,400cc or less |
13p |
8p |
5p |
