Car tax reform is coming

Trade organisation, the British Vehicle Rental and Leasing Association (BVRLA) is issuing a reminder to fleets to review their business car policies ahead of the new emissions based tax regime which comes in to place from April 2009.

Advice is available on the BVRLA website with legal guidance from Deloitte & Touche.

From the 1st April 2009, cars below 160g/km CO2 can claim more tax relief than their more polluting counterparts. BVRLA say company fleet managers need to start looking at the whole-life costs of their vehicles, concentrating on emissions and not just list-price.

“Any company that runs business cars or is thinking of doing so needs to act now if it wants to be in a position to take full advantage of the changes next April,” says John Lewis, director general of the BVRLA.
