Use total eligible kilometres travelled, including return journeys. Apply the annual band separately to each vehicle. CV fiscaux is the administrative rating on the registration document, not engine horsepower. Hybrids do not receive the electric uplift.

6,000 × 0.357 + 1,395 = €3,537.00

d is the full annual eligible distance. Apply one formula to all d kilometres; the bands are not progressive slices.

This is a frais réels expense estimate, not a tax refund. Compare your total eligible actual expenses with the standard 10% deduction. Keep supporting records and account for employer reimbursements. Not tax advice.

The scale includes depreciation, fuel or electricity, repairs, tyres and insurance. Eligible parking, tolls and loan interest may be added separately. For commuting beyond 40 km one way, additional justification is normally required. Check that a scooter belongs to the moped or motorcycle class on its registration.

Official 2026 declaration scale

The tax administration's 2026 declaration help lists the car, two-wheel and moped coefficients and explicitly states the 20% increase for fully electric vehicles. This is the primary source for the exact uplift used here: https://simulateur-ir-ifi.impots.gouv.fr/calcul_impot/2026/aides/frais.htm . Income year: 2025; declaration year: 2026; rates checked 4 October 2026.

Frais réels publication

The official leaflet gives the 2026 (revenus 2025) base tables on printed pages 7–8, rounded electric tables on pages 9–10, vehicle definitions and expense guidance. The tool applies exact +20% to base formulas, so it does not reproduce the separately rounded electric coefficients.
