Assumptions: UK imperial gallon = 4.54609 litres. Hybrid fuel is calculated from the real-world MPG and pump price you enter. The monthly figure is the annual difference divided by 12. This tool excludes depreciation, repairs, charging subscriptions and installation. It is an estimate from your own figures, not financial advice.
