Here's What It Costs To Own A Car In The US

• Business Insider
 

Today's drivers shell out upwards of $10,000 per year, which comes out to about $0.60 per mile, according to "Your Driving Costs," a survey the organization has released every year since 1950.

 The figure varies slightly depending on the kind of car you own, and, obviously, how often you drive it. AAA bases its estimates on someone who drives an average of 15,000 miles per year.

For a person behind the wheel of a four-wheel drive SUV, it could cost $11,600 per year to operate, while a small sedan costs just $7,000.
