EV vs Petrol TCO Calculator
Compare 7-year total cost of ownership for EV vs petrol across 2W, 3W, Car, and SUV segments. Includes break-even point, annual savings, and CO₂ avoided.
How this works
Annual saving = ICE fuel cost + ICE maintenance - EV charging cost - EV maintenance. Break-even = price premium / annual saving
Methodology
Annual EV fuel cost = (km × Wh/km / 1000) × ₹/kWh. Annual ICE fuel cost = (km / mileage) × ₹/L. Annual maintenance savings from average EV ₹1–5/km vs ICE ₹1.5–5.5/km data. Break-even = net EV price premium / total annual savings. CO₂ avoided uses India grid intensity of 710 gCO₂/kWh (CEA 2023) vs IPCC Tier 1 emission factors per fuel type.
