Fuel, Operating Costs & Depreciation
Configure fuel type — gasoline, diesel, CNG, LPG, or electric — with consumption and price per unit. For EVs, set the home charging ratio with a slider splitting domestic electricity vs. public charging prices. Add custom annual operating costs — service, insurance, tires, STK/emissions, car wash, highway stickers, or any custom expense. Set residual value as percentage or amount — the calculator predicts how much the vehicle loses in value over the comparison period.
