Advisory Fuel Rates Change From 1 June 2011

For one month from the date of change, employers may use either the previous or new rates, as they choose. Employers may therefore make or require supplementary payments if they so wish, but are under no obligation to do either.

Engine size Petrol LPG

1400cc or less 15p 11p

1401cc to 2000cc 16p 13p

Over 2000cc 23p 18p

Petrol hybrid cars are treated as petrol cars for this purpose.

Engine size Diesel

1600cc or less 12p

1601cc to 2000cc 15p

Over 2000cc 18p

HMRC will now review the rates 4 times a year and if there are to be changes made these will take effect at the beginning of each quarter (March, June, September, December).
