## What is Auto Cost Calculator?

The purchase price is never the full story. Interest, depreciation, insurance, fuel, repairs, tires, and taxes all add up, and they add up differently depending on where you are. AutoCostCalculator gives you the true total cost of car ownership, based on real local prices.

With AutoCostCalculator, you can calculate the full cost of any car, whether you already own it or are considering buying one, over a timeframe you choose. The app accounts for all the relevant factors: Interest, depreciation up to your planned resale date, insurance premiums, inspections, fuel costs, repairs, tires, and taxes. 
Because prices vary so much from one place to another, AutoCostCalculator is built on local data for over 40 countries, so every calculation reflects what things actually cost where you live, not a rough global average.

AutoCostCalculator also shows you the average market price for a vehicle at any given mileage and suggests cheaper alternatives, so you can compare not just what a car costs you, but what it should cost. Whether you're budgeting for a car you already drive or weighing your next purchase, AutoCostCalculator turns guesswork into a clear, country-specific number.


## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.0.4 — 2026-08-12

This update is about trusting what the list shows you.

Better alternatives
• The alternatives list no longer offers the same vehicle more than once, so the
  results are filled with genuinely different cars instead of repeats.
• A vehicle that has not been registered yet is now labelled "new car" rather
  than showing a negative age.

Fixes
• Fixed a crash that could close the app.
• Comparison results now always open once they are ready — and open only once,
  instead of occasionally stacking two identical screens.
• Long cost group details can now be read all the way to the end.

Clearer feedback
• Loading alternatives, opening a saved car, a past evaluation or a comparison
  result now shows clearly that something is happening.
• The calculation steps can be opened directly from a cost group.

### 1.0 — 2026-08-06
