Assumptions
- Assumes a constant average speed for the whole trip — doesn't account for traffic, stops, or speed variation along the route.
- Use your realistic expected average speed (often lower than the speed limit), not your vehicle's top speed.
Frequently asked questions
What average speed should I use?
Use your realistic expected average, accounting for traffic, stops, and road type — highway driving often averages 70-90 km/h, while city or mixed routes average much lower, often 30-50 km/h.
Does this include rest stops?
No — it calculates pure driving time based on your average speed. Add extra time for meal breaks, fuel stops, or rest, especially on longer trips.
How do I find the distance to enter?
Use a maps app to get the route distance, or use the Trip Distance Calculator if you know your average speed and how long you plan to drive instead.
