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

Where employers have practical difficulties implementing the new lower rates they can continue to use the older higher rates for a further month, i.e. to 28 February 2007, without having to take account of the income tax, NIC and VAT implications of paying allowances at the higher rate. This will allow time for drivers and employers to adjust to the new rate.

This treatment will extend to those employers with dispensations for fuel rates which are linked, usually by a formula, to AFRs.

Employers can however use the new lower rate with effect from 1 February for employees with fuel cards who reimburse their employers for private fuel bought with a company fuel card.
