Calais to Caen is 344.3 km by road, about 3 h 39 min driving, through France. At 7 L/100 km that is 24 litres, €57.58 of diesel at €2.389/L — the kilometre-weighted average of the national figures below. At 5 L/100 km it is €41.13, at 9 L/100 km €74.03. Tolls and vignettes on file for this route come to €10.00 for a category 1 car; adding the tolled motorway kilometres we have no tariff for gives an estimate of €32.54. Diesel: 33 stations within 2 km had a price reported in the last 24 hours. Petrol: 30 stations within 2 km had a price reported in the last 24 hours.
