Calculating Fuel Cost (10 Litres / 100 km)

Using a recent average price of 130 cents ($1.30) per litre (Edmonton/Calgary, Feb 2026), the cost to drive 100 km at a consumption rate of 10 L/100 km is:

• Calculation: 10 Litres 

$1.30/L = $13.00 per 100 km.

• If prices were at the 2022 high of roughly 180 cents ($1.80/L), the cost was $18.00 per 100 km. 

Summary Table of Approximate Historic Averages

• Feb 2026: ~112–130 cents/L (Edmonton/Calgary)
• Mid-2024: ~140–150 cents/L
• Mid-2022: >180 cents/L
• Early 2020: <90 cents/L

5 YEAR AVERAGE KILOMETRES 

An average of 15,000 to 20,000 kilometers per year is generally considered standard, making a 5-year-old car with 75,000 to 100,000 kilometers average, according to Autorama and CarGurus.ca. Some estimates suggest up to 24,000 km annually for total usage, while typical Canadian driving sits closer to 16,000–18,000 km per year, Surex notes. 

Key Findings for a 5-Year-Old Vehicle:

• Average Mileage: 75,000 – 100,000 km.
• Low Mileage: Under 75,000 km.
• High Mileage: Over 100,000 km.

Contextual Data:

• Regional Differences: Western Financial Group notes Ontario averages ~16,000 km, while BC is lower at ~13,100 km per year.

• Calculation Method: To check, divide the total odometer reading by the vehicle's age.

• Impact: Higher than 20,000–25,000 km per year often signals the car has been "overworked" or used for heavy commuting, notes Square One Insurance and Carpages.ca.
