HMRC chasing plugin vehicle owners?

[turbotoaster]

Not sure which area this would go but hopefully maybe someone will have heard of this.

If you have a company car and its a plug in hybrid, is there a requirement written anywhere to specify how often that vehicle must be charged to ensure you pay the reduced BIK as if you dont charge it your just driving around in an automatic petrol vehicle.


Ive checked everywhere I can and could not find any information on it.

Is it just something they have not got around to looking at yet?

No requirement whatsoever.

The taxable benefit nowadays is based on published CO2 emissions and the battery range of the vehicle.

Prior to that (2019/2020 I think?) it was was based on CO2 emissions only.

I think there's a market for a Bentley 6.0 W12 with an AA battery in the glovebox...
