Can I lease a company car through my limited company?

Yes. Most limited companies can lease vehicles for directors and employees, subject to finance approval from the funder.

Is company car leasing tax efficient?

It can be, particularly when choosing a low emission or fully electric vehicle. Individual circumstances vary, so professional tax advice should always be obtained before entering an agreement.

Can I lease an electric company car?

Absolutely. Electric vehicles are increasingly popular for company cars due to their low running costs and the current four percent Benefit in Kind rate for the 2026/27 tax year, the lowest available for any fuel type.

What happens at the end of the lease?

The vehicle is returned to the leasing company, subject to fair wear and tear and the agreed annual mileage. You can then choose a replacement vehicle if required.

Can I add maintenance to my lease?

Yes. Most contracts can include a maintenance package covering servicing, tyres and routine maintenance, bundled into one fixed monthly payment.

Is a company car better than taking a car allowance?

It depends on individual circumstances, including annual mileage, vehicle choice and personal tax position. A company car removes the responsibility of ownership and can be highly tax efficient with a low emission vehicle, while a car allowance offers more personal flexibility. VCEA can help you compare both routes.

Tax Considerations

Benefit in Kind across the BMW range

Because the BMW range spans petrol, plug in hybrid and fully electric models, Benefit in Kind rates vary significantly. Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances, so always seek advice from your accountant.

BMW Type	Example Models	Typical 2026/27 BiK Rate
Fully Electric	i3, i5, iX, iX3, i7	4%
Plug In Hybrid	330e, 530e	6% to 12%, mileage dependent
Petrol / Diesel	1 Series, 3 Series, X1, X3	18% to 37%

Rates shown reflect HMRC's published schedule and are illustrative only. Always confirm current rates for your specific BMW model and derivative with your accountant.
