What it costs to fuel
Across its configurations, the 2019 Cayman costs about $3,200 to $3,800 a year to fuel at the EPA's 15,000-mile basis, averaging roughly $3,483. Over five years that is about $17,417 in fuel alone before maintenance, insurance and depreciation — which is why the running cost, not just the price, decides what a car really costs.
