Transparent cost calculation using wages, vehicle costs, and fuel expenses to show you real savings
We calculate the total driver time (driving + breaks + waiting) and multiply by your hourly wage rate. This includes all paid hours, overtime, and shift premiums.
Calculation
Based on total distance traveled, vehicle fuel efficiency (L/100km or MPG), and current fuel prices. We account for different vehicle types and their specific consumption rates.
Calculation
Includes depreciation, maintenance, insurance, and operational overhead per kilometer or hour. We factor in vehicle age, type, and your specific cost structure.
Calculation
We calculate your original route costs using all three components, then compare against optimized routes
Driver Wages
Total time (hours) × Hourly wage rate
Fuel Expenses
Total distance × Fuel consumption × Fuel price per liter
Vehicle Operating Costs
Distance-based costs + Time-based fixed costs
Total = Wages + Fuel + Vehicle Costs
Reduced Time
Shorter routes = lower driver wages
Less Distance
Optimized paths = lower fuel consumption
Better Utilization
Efficient routing = lower vehicle operating costs
Savings = Original Cost - Optimized Cost
See how we calculate real savings with a concrete example
450 km • 8.5 hours
Driver Wages
8.5h × €25/h
€212.50
Fuel Costs
450km × 0.35L/km × €1.80/L
€283.50
Vehicle Costs
450km × €0.45/km
€202.50
Total
€698.50
380 km • 7.2 hours
Driver Wages
7.2h × €25/h
€180.00
Fuel Costs
380km × 0.35L/km × €1.80/L
€239.40
Vehicle Costs
380km × €0.45/km
€171.00
Total
€590.40
€108.10
15.5% reduction
This example shows how optimized routing reduces all three cost components, resulting in significant savings on every route.
