What's the expense of traveling from Aberdare to Windsor and Maidenhead by car?

If you're using petrol, you're looking at an expense of 25.7 quid. Now, how do we get to that number? Let's break it down.

First off, we need to consider the price of petrol. In this calculation, it's set at 143 pence per liter. Then, we need to know how thirsty your car is. The fuel consumption rate for this ride is miles per gallon.

Now, if you're carpooling, the cost gets divvied up. For two people sharing the ride, it's gonna be 12.85 quid each (£25.7 divided by 2). If you've got three folks in the car, the cost per person comes down to about 8.57 quid (£25.7 divided by 3). And if it's a full house with four passengers, each person chips in 6.43 quid (£25.7 divided by 4).

Let's dive into the nitty-gritty of the calculations. To figure out how much fuel you need for the trip, it's all about distance and fuel efficiency. The distance between Aberdare and Windsor and Maidenhead is about 148.33 miles. So, to cover that distance, your car's gonna need approximately 18 liters of petrol. We got that number by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption rate of miles per gallon and then converting it to liters 'cause that's what we use here.

Once we know how much fuel we need, we can calculate the total cost. Multiply the amount of fuel (18 liters) by the price per liter (143 pence), and you get 25.7 quid. So, there you have it, the fuel cost for your journey from Aberdare to Windsor and Maidenhead: 25.7 pounds.
 


Diesel cost from Aberdare to Windsor and Maidenhead.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 16.2 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 8.1 £ (16.2/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 5.4 £ (16.2/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 4.05 £ (16.2/4) /p.

For these reasons, diesel cars use less fuel than petrol cars:

Diesel fuel has more energy per litre than petrol. Diesel engines can drive farther and provide more power for the same fuel volume, reducing fuel consumption.

Diesel engines have higher compression ratios than petrol engines, increasing thermal efficiency. Diesel engines get more energy from each fuel unit due to this increased compression ratio. Because diesel engines are thermally efficient, they use less fuel.

Diesel engines create more torque at lower RPM than petrol engines. Diesel vehicles require less throttle input to maintain speed, which improves fuel efficiency, especially during steady-state driving.

Diesel cars consume less fuel than petrol cars due to these considerations.
