EV vs ICE Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) Calculator

This simple tool provides an estimate of the total cost of ownership (TCO) of electric vehicles (EVs) versus internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles over a given ownership period. Please input the values below. For EV efficiency, check your manufacturer’s specifications or consult online resources. In future, we aim to include a dropdown list of vehicles for easy selection and more accurate results.

EV Inputs

Electricity Price (TZS per kWh) EV Efficiency (KM per kWh) EV Vehicle Cost (TZS) EV Maintenance per Year (TZS)

ICE Inputs

Petrol Price (TZS per litre) ICE Efficiency (KM per litre) ICE Vehicle Cost (TZS) ICE Maintenance per Year (TZS)

KM Driven Per Year Expected Length of Ownership (years)
