Drive Time Calculator

Estimate driving time, fuel cost, and arrival time from distance, average speed, fuel economy, and gas price, with optional rest stops.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does drive time include traffic?

Only if you reduce the average speed to account for it. Use 50-55 mph for highway with moderate congestion.

How many gallons for a long trip?

Divide distance by your car's mpg. 500 miles at 28 mpg = 17.86 gallons. Add 10% margin for unexpected detours.

Best speed for fuel economy?

Most cars peak between 50-60 mph. Driving 80 mph instead of 65 mph can cut mpg by 20-25%.
