HMRC publishes new advisory fuel rates (AFRs) from September 1

HMRC has released its latest advisory fuel rates (AFRs), to come into force from September 1.

The diesel rate for a company car with an engine 1,400cc or less stays the same as does the rate for a diesel car with an engine over 2,000cc.

However, the AFR for a diesel car, with an engine size from 1,601cc to 2,000cc, decreases by 1p per mile (ppm), from 12-11ppm.  

The AFR for a petrol company car with an engine of 1,400cc or less stays the same at 12ppm, but both those with an engine from 1,400-2,000cc and over 2,000cc fall by 1ppm to 14ppm and 21ppm, respectively.

Meanwhile, LPG vehicles with an engine of 1,400cc or less will stay the same at 8ppm, but for LPG vehicles with an engine from 1,401-2,000cc, the rate increases from 9ppm to 10ppm. LPG vehicles with an engine above 2,000cc will stay the same at 14ppm.   

The advisory electricity rate (AER) for plug-in cars remains unchanged at 4ppm.
