Some time ago, the Google Maps navigator, the best web application to know which way to go from one city to another or to get to a point in the city from home with the car, had added a calculator to measure how much is being to cost the trip, in terms of gasoline consumption . Today this function has been removed, but it is still possible to estimate the cost of fuel when traveling or traveling by car from another very reliable site, that of Viamichelin.
By opening the Viamichelin.it website, you can find directions to any place like in Google Maps. The map is that of TomTom, therefore updated with all the exact streets and roads. By pressing on Options, on the left side, it is possible to indicate the type of car used, the price of petrol of the day if different from that detected by the same site and then the type of fuel used and any economic compensation. In the end, after finding the shortest or fastest route to get to a place, the cost of gasoline that must be incurred for the trip will be estimated.
The estimated fuel cost appears at the bottom of the page, under the directions map. For example, putting the directions from Rome to Catania, you can read that the journey by car costs about € 108.18 (toll € 20.80 + fuel € 87.38).
By clicking on the detailed cost of the journey, you can see how the price varies according to the people in the car and other expense details.
It will be noted that the option of choosing the vehicle is quite accurate.
However the indicator is only an estimate and it cannot be underlined that this function becomes very useful, for example, to calculate the costs of a trip or a journey if it is to be divided among several people.
To stay on the subject, I remember the sites to look for the petrol pumps with the lowest prices .
