Savings Calculator →Use the formula: (distance / MPG) × price per gallon. Or in metric: (distance / 100) × consumption (L/100km) × price per liter. Example: a 200-mile trip at 30 MPG with gas at $3.50/gal costs (200/30) × 3.50 = $23.33.
Electric vehicles are cheapest per mile (~$0.04/mi), followed by diesel (~$0.11/mi), then gasoline (~$0.12/mi). However, EVs have higher purchase prices. For high-mileage drivers (15,000+ miles/year), EVs save significantly on fuel costs over time.
Each gallon of gasoline produces about 8.89 kg (19.6 lbs) of CO2. Diesel produces 10.18 kg per gallon. A 200-mile trip at 30 MPG emits: 6.67 gal × 8.89 = 59.3 kg of CO2. Electric vehicles produce zero direct emissions.
With average US gas at $3.50/gallon and 30 MPG, the cost is about $0.12 per mile. At 25 MPG it's $0.14/mi, at 35 MPG it's $0.10/mi. Use this calculator with your actual consumption and price for a precise figure.
Top tips: maintain steady speed (cruise control), keep tires properly inflated, reduce weight and drag, avoid idling, plan route to avoid traffic. Driving at 55-65 mph instead of 75+ can improve fuel economy by 15-25%.
