Free driving calculators for everyday journey planning
Our free driving calculators help motorists compare fuel use, journey time, running costs, tyre measurements and other common driving figures. Each tool provides an immediate estimate from the details you enter, without creating an account or sending your calculator values to our servers.
Start with the fuel cost calculator when planning the likely petrol or diesel cost of a journey. If you know the distance travelled and fuel used, the MPG calculator compares UK MPG, US MPG, litres per 100 kilometres and kilometres per litre. Electric-car drivers can use the EV charging cost calculator to estimate grid energy, charging losses and electricity cost.
Plan time, distance and complete trip costs
The journey time calculator combines distance, average speed, planned breaks and expected delays. For a broader budget, the road trip cost calculator adds fuel or charging costs to tolls, parking, ferries, accommodation, food and other expenses. Miles, kilometres, MPH and KM/H converters are also available for quick unit checks.
Understand tyre and stopping-distance figures
Use the tyre tools to convert PSI, BAR and kPa or compare the mathematical dimensions of two tyre sizes. These calculations do not replace the vehicle handbook, manufacturer guidance or advice from a qualified tyre professional. Stopping-distance results are educational estimates based on the dry-road reference figures in The Highway Code, rule 126. Weather, road surface, gradient, driver reaction, tyres, brakes and vehicle condition can all increase the real distance needed.
Recovery and vehicle transport estimates
The breakdown recovery cost calculator and vehicle transport cost calculator show indicative ranges using configurable business rules. They are planning estimates rather than guaranteed quotations. Location access, vehicle condition, specialist loading equipment, traffic, tolls and out-of-hours work can affect the confirmed price.
If your vehicle has broken down or you need a confirmed transport price, contact UK Breakdown Recovery by phone or WhatsApp. If anyone is in immediate danger, contact the emergency services first.
How to use the driver tools

All results depend on the accuracy of the information entered. Actual driving costs and journey outcomes may differ because of traffic, weather, driving style, vehicle load, maintenance and changing prices.
