Work out a company car fuel payment
For company cars only. If staff drive their own car, use HMRC's approved mileage rate instead: 55p a mile for the first 10,000 business miles in the tax year from 6 April 2026 (45p before), then 25p.
- Advisory fuel rate (company car)
- 16p a mile
- Tax-free payment
- £160.00
- Carbon for your report
- 277.0 kg CO2e
Rates from 1 September 2026. Carbon uses the 2026 government factor of 0.277 kg CO2e a mile for a medium car on diesel. In a company car it's Scope 1 (Scope 2 for the electricity). The pence a mile has no effect on the carbon, which comes only from the miles and the car's size and fuel.
