Will your tank make it?
Range here uses real-world consumption — about 20% above the lab figure most cars are advertised with — and holds back a reserve rather than running you to the last drop.
| Vehicle | Real range | Fuel used | One tank? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small car45 L tank, 6.5 L/100km | 513 km | 46 L | No — 1 stop |
| Mid-size SUV60 L tank, 8.0 L/100km | 563 km | 57 L | No — 1 stop |
| Ute or 4WD80 L tank, 9.5 L/100km | 632 km | 68 L | Yes |
Your car is not one of these three. Use your actual make and model in the planner above and OTW works it out from the manufacturer's figures and how much fuel you have right now. If you have measured your own fuel use, you can calculate your L/100 km.

Common questions
- How far is it from Kalgoorlie to Perth?
- It is about 594 km by road, roughly 6 hours 45 minutes of driving before stops.
- Can you drive Kalgoorlie to Perth on one tank?
- A small car (45 L tank, 6.5 L/100km) has an estimated real-world range of about 513 km, so it needs at least 1 stop. A mid-size SUV (60 L tank, 8.0 L/100km) has an estimated real-world range of about 563 km, so it needs at least 1 stop. A ute or 4WD (80 L tank, 9.5 L/100km) has an estimated real-world range of about 632 km, so it makes the trip without refuelling. These use real-world consumption, about 20% above the lab figure, and hold back a reserve.
- Where is the cheapest fuel between Kalgoorlie and Perth?
- In the latest fresh reports, the cheapest ULP 91 on this corridor is $2.15/L at Vibe Ascot in Ascot, about 585 km into the drive. Prices can change before you arrive.
- How far off this road is cheap fuel worth driving for?
- At the 40.2c spread currently listed between Ascot, WA and Coolgardie, WA, a 60 litre fill at the cheap end saves about $24.12. For a car using around 9.6 L/100km that pays for roughly 57.1 km each way off the route before the detour has eaten the saving — and that is fuel only, not the time.
- Should you fill up before leaving Kalgoorlie?
- Not necessarily. Fuel averages about 11.9c a litre less in the last third of this drive than in the first, so on this road it pays to carry enough to get clear of Kalgoorlie rather than filling before you go.
