New company car advisory fuel rates have been published and took effect from 1 December 2022.

The advisory fuel rates for journeys undertaken on or after 1 December 2022 are:

HMRC guidance states that the rates only apply when you either:
- reimburse employees for business travel in their company cars
- require employees to repay the cost of fuel used for private travel.
You must not use these rates in any other circumstances.
The Advisory Electricity Rate for fully electric cars is 8p per mile. Electricity is not a fuel for car fuel benefit purposes.
