Free Vehicle Running Cost Calculator & Comparison Tool @ Stuckinaruc.nz

Moved to Forum: Original Link

Hi everyone,

I built a free web tool called stuckinaruc.nz to help Kiwis calculate the true cost of vehicle ownership.

The origin of this comes from the crazy price rise in fuel costs and how that affected my own family. Doing a direct comparison between Petrol, Diesel, EV, and PHEV running costs is a real headache.

What it does:

  • Calculates annual cost & cost-per-km taking into account fuel/electricity prices, RUC rates.

    • Compares different vehicle types side-by-side to help you figure out if switching vehicles actually saves you money.

I just wanted to share this with people who might find it useful.

I'm independent and built this to solve my own problem. I have no association with any automotive or finance brands.

Would love any feedback!

  • Great site

    For PHEV great to have %driven on EV

    Could consider estimated annual servicing costs to be added at bottom (car jam has this handy to see)

    • Oh that's a great idea, thank you!

  • Nice, a bit of feedback:
    - I manually searched for my vehicle (BYD Atto 2), after tapping the model in the dropdown list it wasn't clear that I then needed to tap "Electric" (Petrol was the other option, strangely, but Electric was highlighted so it looked like it was already selected). Once I did, it came up with the sub-model selector.
    - Tested on mobile (Chrome/Brave): the yellow active field highlight overlaps the field title, making it hard to read.

    Love the app, really handy, and surprisingly I had never actually sat down to work this out myself. Cheers!

    • Thank you, really appreciate the feedback!
