verticals — the first, What a car really costs,
every month.
TELOS is the EurekaGO product for vehicle economics: it tells you what a car really costs, month by month and with every cost included, and compares different cars and different ways of paying on the same basis.
The problem
People choose a car by its price or its monthly instalment, and discover the real cost later: depreciation, insurance, road tax, services, tyres, energy, the cost of the financing.
The comparators that exist either ask for dozens of inputs nobody knows, or hide their assumptions behind a single number. TELOS answers with one main number, the cost per month, built from every cost of owning the car, with sensible estimates to start from and every detail within reach.
Three steps, one number.
The car
Paste the link to an AutoScout24 listing and TELOS fills in the data and the photo, or enter everything by hand.
How you pay
Cash, a loan with balloon payment and APR, or long-term rental with deposit, excess mileage and included services.
How much you drive
Kilometres and years of use. The result is the monthly cost; everything else sits behind “Refine”.
Every cost, on the same basis.
Several cars side by side, one tab per car, to duplicate and rename; costs month by month and year by year.
When you do not know a value, such as insurance, services, tyres or typical consumption, TELOS estimates it from the car’s class and specs. Always editable.
An estimate with its range, or the resale value you know, used directly in the calculation.
Road tax by power, the superbollo surcharge, exemptions for electric cars.
Services and tyre changes driven by mileage, road tax in the month of registration.
Monthly and yearly payments, concentrated costs, item-by-item differences from the cheapest car.
The real cost, with no hypothetical gains
The return on savings starts at zero, energy and fuel are a separate cost you choose to include, and depreciation, maintenance and tyres always stay on their own lines. The main number is never made to look better than reality.
Open it and use it.
Nothing to install
TELOS lives in a single public instance, at telos.eurekago.it. There is no account to create and nothing to configure.
No data kept
It has no customer database and no registered users: you do the sums yourself, in your own browser.
Five languages
Italian, English, German, French and Spanish, each with its own addresses.
The name
From the Greek télos, which carries two meanings at once: the totality, the end point of something, and the tax, the cost one pays. Together they are the product’s promise: the whole cost, to the end.
Status
TELOS has been online since 1 October 2026. The total cost of ownership comparator is its first module; the next vehicle-economics tools will build on the same foundation.
