Fuel Trip Calculator Nigeria — Road Trip Cost Estimator

Drive at steady speeds (80–100 km/h is most efficient), avoid aggressive acceleration and braking, ensure tyres are properly inflated (underinflated tyres increase fuel consumption by up to 10%), turn off AC on highways where possible, and avoid unnecessary idling. Carry a jerry can and fill up in cities where prices may be lower.

Fuel prices in Nigeria change frequently following deregulation. As of 2024/2025, petrol prices range from ₦650–₦1,200 per litre depending on location and whether it's NNPC or private stations. Lagos and Abuja tend to have slightly different prices from states further from the refineries. Always check current prices before a long trip.

Toyota Corolla/Camry: 8–12L/100km. Toyota Hilux/SUV: 12–16L/100km. Danfo (minibus): 18–25L/100km. Innoson IVM: 9–13L/100km. Honda Accord/Civic: 8–11L/100km. Keke Napep (tricycle): roughly 3L/100km. Japanese used cars from the 2000s typically consume 10–14L/100km in mixed Nigerian driving conditions.

The 960km figure is approximate for the Abuja–Lokoja–Okene–Ore–Lagos route (the most common route). The exact distance varies by specific start/end points within the cities, road diversions, and route choice. Some routes via Ibadan/Oyo may differ slightly. Allow for 12–16 hours driving time with stops.
