How this tool works
Knowing real trip cost changes decisions: remote vs office work, family trip vs flight, Uber vs own car. Formula is simple — distance (km) × consumption (L/100km) × price (USD/L) — but result surprises. A 500 km trip in average LATAM car (8L/100km) at $1.20/L = $48 fuel alone.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I know my real consumption (L/100km)?
- Fill tank, write down odometer km. Drive normally until fill again, write km. Liters added / km driven × 100 = L/100km. Repeat 3 times, average.
- Own car vs Uber?
- If you drive <500 km/month, Uber almost always cheaper (no insurance, maintenance, parking). >2,000 km/mo the car wins. Use this calculator + your car's TCO.
- Does an EV really save money?
- Yes in countries with cheap electricity (Spain, Chile, Mexico). ~$0.04/km vs $0.10/km gas. But savings recover the EV price difference only after 5-7 years.
- How do I lower consumption?
- Drive smoothly (no harsh acceleration). Tires at correct pressure. No excess trunk weight. High speed costs more (>120 km/h consumption rises ~30%).
