What your daily drive costs
Fuel is the cost most drivers watch, yet few know their cost per kilometer. When prices at the pump move every week, a quick calculation helps you plan the month and decide whether a different way of getting around makes sense.
This calculator estimates fuel, parking and tolls, and compares the total with commuting or booking a ride. It is also handy before buying a car or motorcycle, since running costs matter as much as the monthly payment.

How the fuel cost estimate works
- Distance per month equals your one-way distance times the trips per month, doubled for a round trip, plus any other driving.
- Fuel used is the distance divided by your kilometers per liter.
- Fuel cost is the liters times the price per liter, and parking and tolls are added for the total driving cost.
- The comparison multiplies the cost of one alternative trip by the number of trips per month.
Tips to save more
- Track your real kilometers per liter for a few tanks.
- Carpool or share rides on days with heavy traffic.
- Keep tires inflated and service the car on schedule.
- Compare fuel promos from cards and wallets before you fill up.
