For a car averaging 8.0 litres per 100 km on Special 95 (3.49 AED/L):
- One-way (115 km): 115 × 8.0 ÷ 100 = 9.20 L. 9.20 × 3.49 AED = 32.11 AED.
- Return trip (230 km): 230 × 8.0 ÷ 100 = 18.40 L. 18.40 × 3.49 AED = 64.22 AED.
- Super 98 (3.60 AED/L): Return trip costs 66.24 AED.
Weekend Travel & Mountain Driving Notes
If your trip extends to Jebel Jais mountain peak, add another 30 to 35 km each way with steep mountain climbing. Uphill driving significantly increases fuel consumption (often 12–15 L/100 km), so plan to top up before ascending.
