Fuel Cost Per LessonFAQ's

Fuel cost per lesson depends on your vehicle’s MPG or EV efficiency, the price of fuel or electricity, and how many miles you drive during and between lessons. Driving instructors should also include “dead mileage” between pupils, as this can significantly increase weekly fuel spend.
