Estimate the real 5-year cost of owning any EV in India, including purchase, electricity, service and resale.
Our TCO Calculator — 5-Year Cost of Ownership is part of the EV-Wala calculator suite — all four tools live on the main Tools page. We’re rebuilding each calculator as a standalone, deep-link version with embeddable widgets and shareable result URLs. Standalone launch: July 2026.
In the meantime, the full working calculator is available now on the EV-Wala Tools page. It uses the same engine that will power this standalone page.
What this calculator answers

- DC fast-charging rates from ChargeZone, Tata Power EZ, Statiq and Ather Grid
- RTO road tax and registration variance by state
- Petrol-vs-EV price as of June 2026
- Real-world range derating from MIDC claimed numbers
[This is a developing piece — full review coming June 2026. Updated as we gather more data from Indian roads.]
