Gig Mileage Calculator

Is gig driving actually worth it when you account for your car?

What is this? Gig driving burns through your car. The IRS lets you deduct $0.67/mile (2026) for business driving — but that barely covers depreciation and gas, not tires, brakes, or accelerated insurance. This calculator shows your REAL cost per mile and whether gig driving makes financial sense.

IRS mileage rates 2026: 67 cents/mile for business, 58 cents for medical/moving, 14 cents for charity.

Who it's for: Uber/Lyft/DoorDash drivers and anyone using their personal vehicle for gig work.
