Tax on Pick Ups is changing

6 Jan 2025

Following a Court of Appeal judgement, the government will treat double cab pick-up vehicles with a payload of one tonne or more as cars for certain tax purposes. 

From 1 April 2025 for Corporation Tax, and 6 April 2025 for income tax.

The existing capital allowances treatment will apply to those who purchase double cab pick-up vehicles before April 2025.

Transitional benefit in kind arrangements will apply for employers that have purchased, leased, or ordered a Double Cab Pick Up before 6 April 2025. They will be able to use the previous treatment, until the earlier of disposal, lease expiry, or 5 April 2029.
