Quick Answer
The calculator estimates travel time from distance and speed, then can add breaks and estimate fuel cost from fuel economy.
How to Calculate
- Enter the distance and speed.
- Add any planned break time.
- Choose the fuel mode and enter fuel economy and price if you want a cost estimate.
- Click Calculate.
Formula
Travel time = distance / speed
Total time = travel time + break time
Fuel cost depends on MPG or liters per 100 km and the chosen fuel price.
Worked Examples
Example 1: 120 miles at 60 mph takes 2 hours before breaks.
Example 2: A 15-minute break adds 0.25 hours to the trip.
Example 3: A 240-mile trip at 30 MPG and $3.50 per gallon uses about 8 gallons.
