New advisory fuel rates for company car drivers have been published by HMRC, which are to be applied from 1 March 2022 (although the old rates may be used until 31 March 2022).
Whilst most rates have remained the same, there is one exception for smaller-engined LPG cars which has been reduced. However, with the cost of fuel rising, and likely to continue to rise due to the war in Ukraine, it is not unlikely to consider that the rates may increase on 1 June 2022 when the fuel rates will be reviewed again.
