What driving across Europe costs in tolls, vignettes, bridges and fuel

Toll costs vary greatly across Europe, with France being the most expensive at approximately €11 per 100 km for a car. Eleven countries have toll-free motorways for cars, five of which have tolls for bridges, tunnels or city charges. Eight countries offer a sticker for a period instead of tolls. Some notable examples include Belgium with the Liefkenshoek tunnel, Denmark with the Great Belt bridge and Øresund bridge, the Netherlands with the Westerschelde tunnel, Sweden with the Øresund bridge, Stockholm congestion tax, Gothenburg congestion tax, Sundsvall bridge, and Motala bridge, and the United Kingdom with the Dartford Crossing, M6 Toll, and London Congestion Charge.

Norway charges automatic tolls across the country. The per-km countries have typical rates, but they vary by road. Driving from Helsinki to Costa del Sol by motorhome for 4,555 km in November 2026 would cost €225 for the Øresund and Great Belt bridges. French motorway tolls on the same route would amount to €121, while Spain's toll-free autovías would add nothing.

Mont Blanc costs a car €56.40 one way, and the Gotthard costs nothing beyond the Swiss vignette. The Brenner costs €12.50 on top of Austria's vignette. A 60-litre fill of petrol costs €65 more in Denmark than in Poland, which is more than the Brenner, Austria's 10-day vignette, and the Great Belt bridge combined, totaling €57. Sweden's diesel is currently more expensive than petrol at the pump, with national averages on 11 October 2026 at 18.83 kr (95) for petrol and 22.88 kr (diesel) for diesel.
