Company Car Tax Calculator
Work out the Benefit-in-Kind (BiK) tax on a company car for the 2026/27 tax year, using the official HMRC rates.
How company car tax works
Benefit-in-Kind tax on a company car is worked out as P11D value multiplied by the BiK rate, multiplied by your income tax rate. The BiK rate is set by HMRC from the car's CO2 emissions and fuel type, and for plug-in hybrids, its electric-only range. Electric cars carry the lowest rate, just 4% in 2026/27, while higher-emitting petrol and diesel cars reach the 37% cap.
2026/27 BiK rates
Electric (0 g/km) is 4%. Plug-in hybrids emitting 1 to 50 g/km range from 4% to 16% depending on electric range. Petrol and diesel cars from 51 g/km start at 17% and rise to a 37% maximum, and a non-RDE2 diesel adds a 4% surcharge on top (still capped at 37%). You can check a car's emissions with our free ULEZ and emissions checker, or work out its wider running costs.
This calculator is a general guide for the 2026/27 tax year using HMRC's published appropriate-percentage rates, and is not tax advice. Your actual tax depends on the car's exact P11D value and official CO2 and electric-range figures, your marginal tax rate and your circumstances, and rates are set by government and change in future Budgets. For a definitive figure, use HMRC's own company car tax calculator or speak to a qualified accountant. MotifyMe is not a tax adviser.
