Abstract
The choice between diesel and petrol vehicles is often influenced by both initial purchase costs and long-term operational expenses, including fuel and maintenance. This paper presents a comprehensive cost analysis of various Indian car company variants, specifically examining the diesel and petrol models across different trims (NY2, NY3, X6, X8, X8 (O), BY5, and BY5L) over 1, 5, 10, and 15-year periods. Using a detailed financial model, this study accounts for initial vehicle cost, fuel consumption based on varying fuel prices, and routine maintenance costs. The research applies real-world data on fuel efficiency and prices, considering both minor and major servicing costs.
