400 km of return journeys per month

Illustrative budgets, based on your inputs. Yearly totals assume 12 identical months. Keeping a car may mean its fixed costs continue when you cycle or take public transport.

The numbers behind the journey

Car budget = return distance × travel days × fuel or energy cost per kilometre, plus daily parking and other monthly costs. Public transport and cycling use the monthly budgets you enter.

The starting values are examples, not average prices. This comparison covers costs only. Travel time, accessibility, weather, safety and service availability deserve a place in the decision too. Your entries stay in this page and are not saved.
