Gas Cost Calculator

Enter the trip distance, your vehicle's efficiency and the price per liter — how gas is sold in Puerto Rico. You'll see liters burned, trip cost and the monthly total.

Round trip if that's your case.

km/l = MPG × 0.4251. E.g., 30 MPG ≈ 12.8 km/l.

As shown at the pump.

About this calculator

How it works

Liters = distance ÷ efficiency (km per liter). Trip cost = liters × price per liter.

If your vehicle reports miles per gallon (MPG), convert it: km/l = MPG × 0.4251. For example, 30 MPG ≈ 12.8 km/l.

Monthly cost multiplies the trip by the number of trips per month — handy for your commute (a round trip counts as 2 trips, or enter the full distance).

Example

A 30 km trip in a vehicle doing 12 km/l with gas at $0.90 per liter: it burns 2.5 liters and costs $2.25. Repeated 22 times a month, the commute adds up to $49.50.

Important limitations

  • Real-world efficiency varies with traffic, load, A/C and driving style.
  • Per-liter prices change by station and by week; use the price you see at your pump.
  • Tolls (AutoExpreso), maintenance and depreciation are not included.
