Trip Fuel Cost Calculator

Check your owner manual or dashboard for L/100km or km/L figures. You can also calculate it by dividing kilometres driven by litres used at your last fill-up.

Enter the total round-trip distance to get the full cost. For example, a 250 km one-way trip becomes 500 km for the return journey, costing roughly $66.67 at 12 km/L and $1.60/L.

Highway driving typically offers 15-20% better mileage. A car rated at 10 km/L in the city may achieve 12 km/L on the highway, saving about $13 on a 500 km trip at $1.60/L.

At average car efficiency of 10 km/L and $1.60/L fuel, a 1,000 km trip costs about $160 in fuel. An SUV at 8 km/L would cost $200 for the same distance.

Maintain steady highway speed, keep tires properly inflated, remove roof racks when not needed, and avoid heavy acceleration. These habits can improve mileage by 10-15%.

The formula works for petrol, diesel, or LPG. Just enter the correct price per litre for your fuel type. Diesel vehicles often have better km/L but higher per-litre cost.
