A private vehicle is deductible only where public transport is not an option
The per-kilometre deduction applies "sofern kein öffentliches Verkehrsmittel zur Verfügung steht oder dessen Benützung objektiv nicht zumutbar ist". Whether that holds depends on where the taxpayer lives and works, and on their circumstances — the corpus publishes the rate and leaves the test where it belongs.

The annex prints a flat 700 CHF a year for these, independent of distance. It is a real published figure and deliberately not an entry: this interpreter turns a distance into an amount, and a lump sum is not a function of distance. Apply it yourself.
