Let's delve into the expenses of a road trip from Alloa to Basildon. The journey using petrol will set you back 77.3 pounds. Now, let's walk through how we arrived at this figure.
Firstly, we consider the price of petrol, which is 143 pence per liter. Next, we take into account the car's fuel consumption rate, which stands at 37.5 miles per gallon.
Now, suppose you're carpooling. If there are two passengers sharing the ride, each person will contribute 38.65 pounds (£77.3 divided by 2). With three passengers, the cost per person drops to around 25.77 pounds (£77.3 divided by 3). And if there are four passengers onboard, each person chips in 19.33 pounds (£77.3 divided by 4).
Let's delve deeper into the calculations. To determine how much fuel is needed for the trip, we rely on the distance and the car's fuel efficiency. The distance between Alloa and Basildon is approximately 446 miles. So, to cover this distance, the car will require roughly 54.1 liters of petrol. We obtained this value by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon and then converting it to liters.
Once we have the amount of fuel needed, we calculate the total cost. Multiplying the fuel quantity (54.1 liters) by the price per liter (143 pence) yields 77.3 pounds. Therefore, the fuel cost for the journey from Alloa to Basildon is 77.3 pounds.

For 4 passengers: 12.2 £ (48.8/4) /p.
Significant factors contributing to diesel cars generally having lower fuel consumption than petrol cars are:
-
Higher Thermal Efficiency: Diesel engines typically operate at higher compression ratios than petrol engines. This higher compression ratio allows diesel engines to extract more energy from each unit of fuel, resulting in greater thermal efficiency. As a result, diesel vehicles can achieve better fuel economy compared to petrol vehicles.
-
More Torque at Lower RPM: Diesel engines tend to produce more torque at lower engine speeds (RPM) compared to petrol engines. This characteristic enables diesel vehicles to perform more efficiently during steady-state driving conditions, requiring less throttle input to maintain speed. Consequently, diesel cars often exhibit lower fuel consumption, especially in highway driving scenarios.
