Plan the full cost before you leave

The calculator estimates total distance, fuel needed, fuel cost, tolls, additional expenses, and each traveler's share. Actual fuel use can vary with speed, traffic, load, weather, and vehicle condition.

How to calculate road trip fuel and expenses

For L/100 km, multiply total distance by consumption and divide by 100. For km/L, divide distance by fuel economy. Multiply the liters by fuel price, then add tolls and other expenses.

Example

250 km each way

A 500 km round trip at 8 L/100 km requires 40 liters. At $1.50 per liter plus $20 in tolls, the total is $80, or $20 for each of four travelers.

Flexible estimate

One way or round trip
