You cross 12 toll plazas across Maharashtra, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu. For a car the published fees add up to ₹905 one way, about ₹1.10 per km. 1 plaza on this route does not publish fees in the NHAI dataset; budget about ₹80 extra to be safe.
At 13 h 55 min of realistic driving time, plan an overnight halt roughly halfway — two drivers sharing the wheel is the safer option if you must do it in one day.
Ooty is a hill destination: the last stretch climbs ghat roads, where mileage drops by roughly 15–25% and speeds fall sharply. Our fuel figures use flat-road mileage, so add a buffer.
