Fuel Savings Calculator
Compare fuel costs between two vehicles or calculate potential savings from improved fuel efficiency.
Fuel Savings Tips
- A 5 MPG improvement has a much larger impact when going from 15 to 20 MPG (25% less fuel) than when going from 30 to 35 MPG (only 14% less fuel).
- Consider the total cost of ownership, not just fuel savings, when deciding whether to upgrade vehicles.
- Regular maintenance, proper tire inflation, and smooth driving can improve fuel economy by up to 15%.
- Using cruise control on highways typically improves fuel efficiency.
- Removing excess weight and reducing cargo box/roof rack usage when not needed can improve fuel economy.
- Hybrid and electric vehicles often have higher upfront costs but lower operating costs over time.
