How much does it cost to drive from Ayr to Bristol with petrol?

Let's delve into the expenses of a road trip from Ayr to Bristol. The journey using petrol will set you back 64.4 pounds. Now, let's walk through how we arrived at this figure.

Firstly, we consider the price of petrol, which is 144 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 32.2 pounds (£64.4 divided by 2). With three passengers, the cost per person drops to around 21.47 pounds (£64.4 divided by 3). And if there are four passengers onboard, each person chips in 16.1 pounds (£64.4 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 Ayr and Bristol is approximately 369.13 miles. So, to cover this distance, the car will require roughly 44.7 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 (44.7 liters) by the price per liter (144 pence) yields 64.4 pounds. Therefore, the fuel cost for the journey from Ayr to Bristol is 64.4 pounds.
 

Diesel cost from Ayr to Bristol.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 44.7 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 22.35 £ (44.7/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 14.9 £ (44.7/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 11.18 £ (44.7/4) /p.

Diesel fuel and gasoline (petrol) fuel have differences:

  1. Energy Density: Diesel fuel generally has a higher energy density than petrol. This means that diesel fuel contains more energy per liter or gallon compared to petrol, resulting in diesel engines being able to generate more power and travel further distances on the same volume of fuel.

  2. Octane Rating: Petrol typically has a higher octane rating compared to diesel fuel. Octane rating indicates the fuel's resistance to knocking or pre-ignition in spark-ignition engines. Higher octane ratings are required for petrol engines with higher compression ratios or turbocharging, whereas diesel engines rely on compression ignition and do not use spark plugs.
