Current Advisory Electricity Rate (AER)
NOTE: From September 1, 2018 HMRC introduced an advisory fuel rate (AFR) for pure electric cars.
Called the Advisory Electricity Rate (AER), it has been cut by 1ppm, from 8ppm to 7ppm from September 1, 2024.
It is published, and reviewed quarterly, alongside AFRs for petrol, diesel and LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) cars based on engine size.
Plug-in hybrid and hybrid cars continue to be treated as either petrol or diesel models for mileage reimbursement purposes.
