BENEFIT IN KIND COMPANY
CAR TAXATION

†

The car benefit charge will be the car’s list price
(including VAT, options and accessories fitted,
delivery to retailer and number plates, but
excluding Vehicle Excise Duty and new vehicle
first registration fee) multiplied by the percentage
charge for the CO2 emissions band in which the
car falls (see table opposite). Multiply this figure
by your personal income tax rate (20% for Basic
Rate, 40% for Higher Rate) to calculate your annual
benefit in kind tax liability.

Example:
Ampera Positiv (CO

PLUG-IN CAR GRANT (P-ICG)

Motorists purchasing a qualifying ultra-low
emission car can receive a grant of 25 per
cent towards the cost of the vehicle, up to a
maximum of £5,000. The 2010 Spending
Review confirmed that Government has made
provision to support the Plug-In Car Grant for
the life of this Parliament.

The Government is adopting a ‘technology
neutral’ approach to reducing emissions from
transport. This means that cars with tailpipe
emissions of 75g/km or less, including electric,
plug-in hybrid and hydrogen-fuelled cars are
all potentially eligible for the subsidy. However,
consumers will find that hydrogen-vehicles are,
as yet, less available on the open market than
electric and plug-in hybrid options.

To ensure continued value for money for the
taxpayer, the scheme, and the level of subsidy
provided, will be regularly reviewed. The first
review of the Plug-In Car Grant will take place
in 2015.

The Plug-In Car Grant has been designed to
help make the whole-life costs of a qualifying
car more comparable with petrol or diesel
equivalents. Over time, as manufacturers begin
to make these cars in greater volumes, the costs
of production should begin to fall. This will help to
make an ultra-low carbon car a realistic option
for anyone looking to buy a car.

Both private consumers and businesses can
benefit from the Plug-In Car Grant when
purchasing a qualifying ultra-low emission
car and registering it in the UK.
