From 1 June 2021, the advisory fuel rates to be used by employees when claiming back mileage using a company car are as follows:

Engine size	Petrol – rate per mile	LPG – rate per mile
1400cc or less	11 pence	8 pence
1401cc to 2000cc	13 pence	9 pence
Over 2000cc	19 pence	14 pence

Engine size	Diesel – rate per mile
1600cc or less	9 pence
1601cc to 2000cc	11 pence
Over 2000cc	13 pence

These rates should also be used where an employee needs to repay the cost of fuel used in private travel.

The advisory electric rate for fully electric cars is 4p per mile. Hybrid cars are treated as either diesel or petrol for advisory fuel rates.

The previous advisory fuel rates can be used up to 30 June 2021 if desired.
