Work out your car's annual running costs — fuel, insurance, servicing, tires, taxes — and the cost per kilometer driven.
Want to also account for depreciation (total cost of ownership)? See the total cost calculator.
| Step | Formula |
|---|---|
| Fuel cost | (annual km ÷ 100) × consumption × fuel price |
| Total per year | fuel + insurance + service + tires + taxes |
| €/km | total per year ÷ annual km |
This calculation does not include the car's depreciation (purchase price amortization) — these are running (consumption) costs only. For total cost of ownership use the total cost calculator.
Running costs are the ongoing consumption costs (fuel, insurance, servicing). Total cost of ownership additionally accounts for depreciation (the drop in purchase price over time) — see the total cost calculator.
Real servicing costs vary every year (one year you might replace the brakes, another year nothing). Enter your average annual amount from experience, or 3–5% of the car's value as a guideline.
Yes, this €/km is a good basis for an "economically justified" compensation rate — see the mileage compensation calculator.
