407 Toll Estimator – 2026 Edition
How the 407 Toll Charge Works (2026 Update)
The 407 toll charge calculator factors in per‑kilometre rates that vary by time of day, vehicle classification, and whether you have a transponder. In 2026, Highway 407 ETR continues to use dynamic pricing to manage congestion. Here’s what you need to know:
Time-based rates
Peak hours cost ~20-30% more than off-peak. Our calculator applies real 2026 coefficients: Peak $0.69/km, Mid $0.63/km, Off-peak $0.56/km for Class 1.
Transponder advantage
Transponder users pay lower per‑km rates and skip the $4.20 camera charge. Savings up to 25% per trip.
Vehicle class multiplier
Class 2 (light trucks) pay 1.5x base rate, Class 3 (heavy trucks) pay 2x. Our estimator automatically adjusts.

All estimates include trip toll ($0.75/one-way) and 13% HST. Video toll users add $4.20 camera charge per trip.

Factors That Influence Your Final Toll Charge
Beyond distance, the 407 toll charge calculator accounts for several variables that can affect your final invoice. Since 2026, the 407 ETR also applies a "zone-based adjustment" for segments with higher congestion, but the average per‑km rates are stable. Always consider:
- ✓ Camera charge ($4.20 per trip if no transponder).
- ✓ Trip toll fee ($0.75 per trip for light vehicles).
- ✓ HST (13% Ontario sales tax) applied to total toll.
- ✓ Heavy vehicle multipliers: Class 2 = 1.5x, Class 3 = 2x.
- ✓ Round trips double the distance and trip toll charges.
