About
Car Fuel Bill helps car shoppers compare what cars cost to fuel, using the EPA fuel economy data for every version of every model since 2000.
What you can do here
Each model page lists every EPA-rated version of that model year with its city, highway and combined mileage and the EPA's yearly fuel cost, then recalculates the cost with your own miles, gas price and share of city driving.
The fuel cost calculator compares two cars side by side and shows the difference per year and over five years.
Where the figures come from
Mileage, yearly fuel cost, 5-year savings and tailpipe CO2 figures come from the vehicle data the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and Department of Energy publish on fueleconomy.gov. The EPA cost estimates assume 15,000 miles a year and projected fuel prices for the model year, and the combined rating weights city driving at 55% and highway driving at 45%.
All model years use the EPA's current test method, so older ratings may differ from the window sticker of the time.
How pages are built
Page text is generated by code from those figures, without AI writing. An automated check compares every number in the text with the data before a page is published.
The calculator runs in your browser. The numbers you enter are not sent anywhere.
Independence and corrections
Car Fuel Bill is an independent site and is not affiliated with the EPA, the Department of Energy or any carmaker. It does not sell cars or take referral fees from carmakers.
