HMRC have published new advisory fuel rates for company car drivers which apply from 1 June 2023.
The most notable change this quarter is that the rates reflect the fact that diesel prices are starting to come down, reducing the gap between petrol and diesel, whilst, as energy prices start to stabilise, the electric car rate remains at 9p.
The electric rate is now being reviewed on a quarterly basis with effect from 1 March 2023.
The new rates per mile are:
