25 MPG

25 MPG Calculator

The 25 miles per gallon calculator shows the running cost of a vehicle that returns 25 MPG — close to the US national average. That figure is typical of midsize sedans and compact crossovers like the Toyota Camry, Honda CR-V, and Mazda CX-5. With the MPG fixed at 25, you only need a trip distance and a gas price to see the cost.

Enter the miles you plan to drive and the price per gallon, and the calculator returns total fuel cost, gallons needed, cost per mile, and an annual estimate. Because 25 MPG sits right around the national average, this page is a useful baseline for comparing against thirstier trucks or more efficient hybrids — the per-mile cost here is what most drivers experience.

Below the calculator you'll find examples of vehicles that average 25 MPG and a full cost table across common distances and gas prices. Compare with our 18 MPG and 30 MPG calculators, and use the MPG Savings tool to see what switching to a higher figure would save.
