Plan car costs before you buy or lease: estimate fuel economy and trip spend, compare monthly loan payments, model lease-versus-buy totals over several years, forecast EV charging costs from kWh rates, and compare tire diameters when upsizing wheels. Every tool runs instantly in your browser with no account — useful at the dealership or when budgeting commute expenses.
Most people arrive with one of three questions: what this car costs per month, what a trip costs in fuel, or whether a wheel size will fit. Start with the loan payment tool when you are negotiating financing, the lease-versus-buy comparison when a dealer has quoted both, and the MPG or EV charging tools when comparing running costs between two vehicles. Tire size matters beyond fitment — changing overall diameter shifts your speedometer reading and effective gearing. None of these tools include insurance, registration, taxes, or maintenance, and those often dominate real ownership cost, so add local quotes for them before deciding.
8 tools in this section
MPG
Calculate fuel economy as MPG or L/100 km from distance driven and fuel used.
Car Payment
Estimate monthly auto loan payment from amount, rate, and term.
Lease vs Buy
Compare total lease cost vs financed purchase net of resale. Estimate only.
EV Charging Cost
Estimate electricity cost to charge an EV from distance, efficiency, and kWh rate — US or metric.
Tire Size
Compare overall tire diameter from metric tire codes like 205/55R16.
Speedometer Error
Estimate speedometer error when changing tire diameter. Compare stock vs new overall tire size.
RPM to Speed
Calculate vehicle speed from engine RPM, total gear ratio, and tire diameter. MPH or km/h.
Cost Per Mile
Calculate driving cost per mile from fuel economy and gas price, plus optional maintenance. IRS mileage rate cited for reference — not tax advice.
