CO2 and Tax Context Calculator

Compare annual tailpipe CO2 for petrol, diesel and electric. Add VED and BIK context if you want the full story.

Driving profile

Annual mileage (miles) Include EV grid emissions

Tailpipe for EV is always zero. Grid mode estimates upstream CO2 from electricity generation.

Grid factor (g CO2 per kWh)

Only used when grid mode is on. Typical UK values vary by year and time of day.

Charging loss (percent)

Optional realism factor for EV charging inefficiency.
