Founder, BhutiFuel
South African developer who built BhutiFuel to solve a personal problem: his own fuel money was disappearing and he wanted numbers he could trust. He now works on the fuel economics, driver margin and cost per kilometre problems that South African app-based drivers and small fleet owners run into every month.
What I can comment on
- South African petrol and diesel price changes, and what they do to a driver's weekly take-home
- E-hailing driver margins in South Africa, and why gross earnings overstate profit
- Load-shedding and fuel costs for South African taxi and e-hailing operators
- Fuel cost per kilometre methodology, and why manufacturer consumption figures mislead drivers
- Rent-to-own vehicle finance in South Africa, and what a weekly instalment really leaves a driver
Original data
BhutiFuel holds anonymised, aggregated fill-level data from South African drivers and publishes original figures from it, with the sample size and method stated on every page.
Every published figure states its sample size, the period it covers, and what it does and does not include. Where the sample is too small to support a claim, no claim is published.

How the numbers are treated
- Cost per kilometre is calculated from fills the driver logged, never from a manufacturer consumption figure.
- Tax pages are general information and never tax advice. Figures that are not in our own data are cited to the source that published them.
- Nothing is averaged across a sample too small to support the average.
- Driver data is aggregated and anonymised. No individual driver is identifiable in anything published here.
