How much does it cost to travel from Birmingham to Exeter by car?

The journey, fueled by petrol, comes to £27.8. In this calculation, we've assumed a petrol price of 143 pence per liter and the car's petrol consumption at 37.5 miles per gallon.

For those considering carpooling, with two passengers, the cost per person is £13.9 (£27.8/2). With three passengers, the cost reduces to £9.27 per person (£27.8/3). And for four passengers, it further decreases to £6.95 per person (£27.8/4).

To break it down further, here's how we arrive at the result:

The fuel required is determined by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption. For a journey of 160.3 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 160.3 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 19.4 liters of fuel needed.

The fuel cost is then calculated by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. For 19.4 liters of fuel at 143 pence per liter, the total comes to £27.8.

In conclusion, the fuel cost from Birmingham to Exeter amounts to £27.8.

 

The following factors affect automotive fuel consumption:

Traffic Congestion: Heavy traffic causes frequent stops and idling. Constant acceleration and deceleration might increase fuel consumption compared to open roadways.

Vehicle Weight: Heavy baggage or superfluous goods can strain the engine and increase fuel consumption. Removing excess weight boosts fuel efficiency.

Roads with steep inclines or drops can affect fuel consumption, especially for smaller engines. Uphill climbing takes more engine power and petrololine, whereas descending downhill may require more braking and fuel to regulate.

Weather: Rain, snow, and strong winds can affect fuel use. Driver speed and behaviour may change under these conditions, affecting fuel efficiency. Extreme temperatures also effect engine performance and fuel consumption.
