Fuel Cost Calculator

Fuel cost is calculated by dividing the total trip distance by your vehicle's mileage (km per litre) to get the litres required, then multiplying by the fuel price per litre. For example, a 300 km trip at 15 km/l mileage with fuel at Rs 100/litre costs Rs 2,000.

For petrol cars, 12-18 km/l is typical for city driving and 15-22 km/l on highways. Diesel cars generally deliver 15-25 km/l. Actual mileage varies based on driving conditions, traffic, vehicle maintenance, and driving style.

Maintain steady speeds, avoid rapid acceleration and braking, keep tyres properly inflated, and service your vehicle regularly. Driving at 60-80 km/h on highways is generally the most fuel-efficient speed range for most cars.

Use the current price of whichever fuel your vehicle runs on. Diesel is typically Rs 5-10 cheaper per litre than petrol in India, but diesel vehicles usually have a higher purchase cost. Enter the exact fuel price from your nearest pump for the most accurate estimate.

Simply enter the total round-trip distance (double the one-way distance) into the calculator along with your mileage and fuel price. The result will show the total fuel expense for the entire journey both ways.
