Fuel Trip Cost Calculator FAQ
How does the fuel trip cost calculator work?
Distance is converted to kilometres, doubled for a round trip, and divided by km per litre to get litres. Litres are multiplied by the price per litre. Tolls and parking are added, and the total is divided by the number of people.
What fuel economy should I use?
Use your real figure from the trip meter or fill-ups. The manufacturer’s number is usually optimistic, and city traffic, hills, air conditioning and speed all lower it.
Does it include wear and tyres?
No. It covers fuel, tolls and parking. Add servicing and depreciation yourself if you want the full cost per kilometre.
Is this fuel trip cost calculator free and private?
Yes. It is free with no sign-up, and the calculation happens on your device, so your numbers are never sent to a server.
