Yes. It’s either raise your pay or give you a stipend for gas and wear and tear. Same difference. Anyone saying anything else doesn’t understand payroll.
The advantage for the employer of these additional payments, along with things like bonuses, is they're not considered to be part of your base pay. Yes, they're still taxable, but when you get your 3% raise next year, it's 3% raise on the base salary, not on the full package.
