AutoTCO: Car Cost Calculator

AutoTCO shows what a car really costs, not just the price on the window. Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) adds up everything you pay to buy, own and run a car over the years you keep it, then subtracts what it is worth when you are done. The purchase price alone rarely tells the real story: fuel or electricity, insurance, maintenance, tires, taxes, financing and depreciation often decide which car is actually cheaper. WHAT YOU GET • Compare up to 6 cars side by side, or check a single car on its own. • Only two inputs are required: how long you will keep the car and how far you drive each year. Everything else is optional. • Buy or lease: leasing has its own step with monthly rent, fees and an optional buyout. • Results three ways: total over your ownership period, per year (and per month), and per mile or kilometer. • See the cheapest car at a glance and where the gap comes from: acquisition, depreciation, ownership costs, running costs, taxes and fees. • A cost-over-time chart shows the year one car starts paying off against another. • Nothing hidden: every result comes with a plain-language log of what was assumed and what you left blank. SHARE AND KEEP • Share a private link to your comparison, or copy it in one tap. • Export your results as CSV or as a printable PDF. • Start from ready-made examples if you want to see how it works. MADE FOR YOUR MARKET • Available in English, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese and Italian. • Euro, US dollar, British pound, Swiss franc, Canadian and Australian dollar. • Kilometers or miles, light or dark theme.
