Petrol is cheapest in Gujarat (₹102.25/L) and dearest in Maharashtra (₹112.45/L). Filling the ~45 litres you need in Gujarat saves about ₹454 versus buying it all in Maharashtra.
For the same sedan, fuel for one way costs ₹4,553 on petrol, ₹3,458 on diesel and about ₹1,908 on electric (public fast charging at ₹20/kWh; home charging is far cheaper). An EV with ~350 km real range needs about 2 charging stops on the way.
The pass costs ₹3,075 for 200 crossings (₹15.38 per crossing) on NHAI plazas. This trip uses 5 crossings one way — worth about ₹77 of pass value against ₹600 in regular fees. If you drive highways often, the pass pays off on this route.
Return within 24 hours and the car toll for the round trip is ₹895 instead of ₹1,200 — a 25% discount that FASTag applies automatically.
About ₹1,240 one way with FASTag across 13 plazas — ₹600 in published fees plus ~₹640 estimated for 8 plazas that don't publish rates. A return within 24 hours costs ₹2,175. Without FASTag you pay 1.25x by UPI: ₹1,551.

About 45 litres for a car doing 15 km/l (₹4,553 at Bhavnagar prices). A hatchback at 18 km/l needs ~37 L; an SUV at 11 km/l needs ~61 L.
Around ₹5,793 one way for a petrol sedan (fuel ₹4,553 + toll ₹1,240), or ₹11,280 for a same-day return. Split between four people that is ₹1,448 each, one way.
Plan on about 11 h including short breaks. Free-flowing traffic can do it in 7 h 53 min, but towns, trucks and plaza queues usually add time.
One way with FASTag: bus/2-axle truck ₹4,065, 3-axle ₹4,510, 4–6 axle ₹6,415, 7+ axle ₹7,810 (includes estimates for plazas without published fees).
Yes, plazas charge the same fee in both directions, so the Lonavala to Bhavnagar toll is the same ~₹1,240 for a car. Fuel cost differs only if you fill up at Lonavala's state price.
Fees are revised every 1 April and some plazas change mid-year, so treat results as a close estimate. Spotted a wrong fee or a missing plaza? Tell us — we fix reported errors within 72 hours and log them on our corrections page.
