How the EV vs Petrol Calculation Works

ICE Fuel Cost Formula

Calculates the monthly fuel expenditure for petrol/diesel vehicles:

ICE Bill (₹) = (Monthly km ÷ Mileage km/L) × Fuel Price (₹/L)

Example: 1,200 km ÷ 14 km/L × ₹104/L = ₹8,914/month.

EV Energy Cost Formula

Calculates the monthly electricity bill using real-world battery consumption:

EV Bill (₹) = (Monthly km × Wh/km ÷ 1000 ÷ 0.88) × Tariff (₹/kWh)

Example: 1,200 km × 130 Wh/km @ ₹8/kWh with 12% AC loss = ₹1,418/month.
