Results
Figures are illustrative based on the inputs you provide. Adjust the numbers above to reflect your own fleet's actual costs for an accurate estimate.
How This Calculator Works
- Enter your fleet size and average per-vehicle monthly costs across fuel, maintenance, insurance, and tyres.
- Enter an admin/overhead allowance as a percentage — typically 5–10%.
- The calculator builds your total monthly and annual fleet budget, plus an average cost per vehicle.
Formula
The admin/overhead allowance covers compliance, licensing administration, and management time not captured in the direct per-vehicle costs.

Frequently Asked Questions
What should the admin/overhead percentage cover?
Compliance administration, licensing renewals, management and supervisory time, and other costs not tied directly to a single vehicle's fuel or maintenance spend.
Should driver wages be included?
This calculator focuses on vehicle operating costs. If you want a fully loaded budget including driver wages, add an additional monthly per-vehicle driver cost line to your own total separately.
How often should I recalculate this budget?
Quarterly is a reasonable minimum — fuel prices and maintenance costs both shift enough over a quarter to be worth reviewing against actuals.
