HMRC updates advisory fuel rates
Taking effect from 1 June 2019, HMRC’s latest advisory fuel rates apply to employees using a company car and only differ marginally from previous rates.
HMRC has added 1 pence-per-mile to each category across the board, with the exception of sub-1.6-litre diesels that remain unchanged at 10 pence-per-mile.
| Engine size | Petrol – amount per mile | LPG – amount per mile |
|---|---|---|
| 1400cc or less | 12 pence | 8 pence |
| 1401cc to 2000cc | 15 pence | 9 pence |
| Over 2000cc | 22 pence | 14 pence |
| Engine size | Diesel – amount per mile |
|---|---|
| 1600cc or less | 10 pence |
| 1601cc to 2000cc | 12 pence |
| Over 2000cc | 14 pence |
As was the case previously, hybrid cars are to be treated as petrol or diesel vehicles, while the electric vehicle rate remains at 4 pence-per-mile.
