Fuel Cost Calculator

Estimate journey fuel costs from distance in kilometres, consumption in litres per 100 km and fuel price per litre.

How to calculate journey fuel cost

Multiply distance divided by 100 by the fuel consumption, then multiply by the price per litre. A 200 km trip at 6 L/100km and 1.50 per litre costs 18.

Formula

distance ÷ 100 × consumption × price

Worked example

Distance (km)
200
Consumption (L/100km)
6
Price per litre
1.5

Applying the formula to these values gives 18 .

What should I check?

Enter the full distance, including the return journey if needed. Traffic, driving conditions and vehicle load can change actual fuel consumption.
