How to use it
- Choose metric or US units and enter the distance; tick round trip to double it.
- Enter consumption and the fuel price.
- Enter the tolls and parking for the whole trip, in the same currency.
- Enter how many people are in the car and tick “driver rides free” if the passengers pay for the driver’s seat.
How it works
- Fuel cost = distance × consumption × price, using the same fuel helper as the fuel trip cost calculator.
- Total = fuel cost + tolls + parking.
- Each person pays = total ÷ people, or total ÷ (people − 1) when the driver rides free.
Worked example
400 km at 7.5 L/100 km needs 30 L; at 1.80 that is 54.00. Tolls 12.00 and parking 6.00 make 72.00. Four people pay 18.00 each; if the driver rides free, three passengers pay 24.00 each.
Tips
- Agree the split before you leave to avoid awkward conversations afterwards.
- Round up the per-person amount if it makes paying in cash easier.
- Use real consumption from your trip computer rather than the brochure figure.
