Am I required to pay Zakat on a car that is owned by me, if I use it to deliver food?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Jamia Binoria
I deliver food by car. The car is owned by me. Is Zakat due on this car? Please guide me regarding this.

الجواب حامدا و مصلیا

Zakat is not due on the value of a car that is used for one’s personal use or for one’s livelihood. This is why Zakat is not due on the value of the car that the questioner is using for delivering food.
And Allah knows best.
