Car Fuel Cost Calculator
Estimate daily, monthly and yearly fuel spend from distance, mileage and fuel price.
Use what the car really gives, not the brochure figure.
Type today's price at your pump. Fuel prices change, so none is filled in for you.
Enter the distance, the mileage and today's fuel price to see your cost.
How to use it
- Choose the fuel the car uses.
- Enter how far you drive on a day you use the car, and the mileage the car really gives.
- Type today's fuel price at your pump.
- Enter how many days a month you drive, and read the daily, monthly and yearly cost.
How it works
Cost per kilometre = fuel price ÷ mileage. Daily cost = distance × cost per kilometre. Monthly cost = daily cost × days driven. Yearly cost = monthly cost × 12.
A worked example
40 km a day, at 16 km per litre and ₹100 a litre: cost per kilometre = 100 ÷ 16 = ₹6.25, daily = 40 × 6.25 = ₹250, monthly over 26 days = ₹6,500, yearly = ₹78,000. (The price is an example. Use today's.)
What it assumes
- No fuel price is filled in for you, because prices change. Check today's price.
- Real-world mileage is usually lower than the brochure figure, and lower in heavy traffic and with the AC on.
- Only fuel is counted. Servicing, tyres, insurance and repairs are extra.
