Details

Company car tax was reformed in April 2002 to an emissions-based system. The charge is calculated by applying a percentage figure (the appropriate percentage) to the list price of the car. The fuel type of the car and its CO2 emissions determine the appropriate percentage.

This table is no longer being updated.

Current and historic company car tax rules can be found in HMRC tax guide 480.
