How to Use the Fuel Cost Calculator
Whether you're budgeting for a specific road trip or estimating your total yearly expenditure, our tool provides instant, accurate calculations for Petrol, Diesel, and Electric vehicles.
Top Tips to Reduce Your Fuel Costs
The Art of Smoothness
Avoid "jackrabbit" starts and heavy braking. Anticipate the road ahead to maintain a steady pace. For EV drivers, maximise regenerative braking by easing off the pedal early when approaching stops.
Tire Pressure Matters
Under-inflated tyres increase rolling resistance, forcing your engine to work harder. This doesn't just cost more in fuel; for EVs, it can significantly slash your available range. Check them monthly.
Lighten the Load
Every extra kilo counts. Clear out unnecessary items from your boot and remove roof racks or cargo boxes when they aren't in use to reduce aerodynamic drag.
Smart Journey Planning
Use apps like Google Maps or Waze to avoid gridlock. While motorways are generally best for diesel/petrol, EV drivers often find stop-start city driving more efficient due to regen braking.
Climate Control Wisdom
At low speeds, open windows; at high speeds, use AC moderately. EV owners should use pre-conditioning via their app while plugged in to warm the cabin without draining the battery.
Embrace Eco Mode
If your vehicle offers different driving profiles, always select 'Eco' for daily commuting. It optimizes gear shifts and energy output to ensure you get the most distance from every drop or charge.
