Personal vs Company Vehicle Simulator

Compare the total cost of using your personal vehicle (reimbursed at €0.40/km) versus a company vehicle (subject to autonomous taxation and running costs) in Portugal 2026.

Personal Vehicle vs Company Car — Key Factors

  • Personal vehicle allowance: €0.40/km, exempt from IRS and Social Security up to legal limits
  • Company car autonomous taxation: 8%–32% depending on acquisition value
  • Running costs: insurance, IUC, maintenance, fuel — deductible at 50% for company cars
  • Electric vehicles: 0% autonomous taxation up to €62,500 (major tax advantage)

For low annual mileage, personal vehicle allowance is usually more tax-efficient. For high mileage or premium vehicles, a company car may be advantageous.
