Fuel Cost Calculator — Germany
Calculate trip, daily, weekly, monthly and yearly fuel costs in L/100 km, MPG or km/L. For Germany drivers this uses real local figures where we have them — a HU/AU (TÜV) costs about €160 per test and annual Kfz-Steuer is around €180 per year. Prices default to EUR and litres per 100 km.

Why cost of ownership matters
The purchase price is only the beginning. Fuel or electricity, insurance, Kfz-Steuer, the HU/AU (TÜV), servicing, tyres, repairs and depreciation together usually cost more than the car itself over a few years. Use this tool to see the full picture before you buy.
How to use this calculator
Enter realistic figures for your situation — what you actually pay for insurance, what you expect to drive in a year — and the tool breaks the total down into monthly, weekly, yearly and per-distance costs. Adjust any figure and the results update instantly.
Frequently asked questions
Which units does the fuel cost calculator use?
You can enter consumption as L/100 km, MPG or km/L, and prices per litre or per gallon — the figures are converted for you and shown in EUR.
How do I work out my real fuel cost per mile?
Enter your own consumption and the price you actually pay at the pump rather than the manufacturer's figure; the tool then shows the cost per trip, per week, per month and per year.
Can I budget for a trip?
Yes — enter the distance and the tool gives the one-way and return fuel cost, which is also what the Trip Cost Calculator uses for a whole journey.
Does it include Kfz-Steuer or the HU/AU (TÜV)?
No — this tool covers fuel or energy only. Those costs are part of the Car Cost Calculator, which totals everything for Germany.
