The expense for two individuals participating in a carpool is £14.3 (equivalent to 28.6/2) per passenger.
The fare for this journey for three individuals in the vehicle is 9.53 pounds (28.6/3) per passenger.
7.15 pounds (28.6/4) per passenger is the expense of this journey for a car carrying four passengers.


(163.97 miles at 37.5 mpg) x 144 pence per litre for fuel equals 28.6 pounds.

To be more precise, the outcome is as follows:

Fuel Required = Distance / Vehicle Fuel Consumption (in miles multiplied by 4.54609 per vehicle)19.9 litres are consumed (163.97 miles * 4.54609 / 37.5 mpg).

Required fuel = 19.9 lt

Fuel expenses are calculated as follows: 19.9 litres x 144 pence per litre, or 28.6 pounds

Diesel cost from Bolsover to Pontypool.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 19.9 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 9.95 £ (19.9/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 6.63 £ (19.9/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 4.98 £ (19.9/4) /p.

Diesel cars generally have lower fuel consumption compared to petrol cars for the following reasons:

  1. Higher Energy Density of Diesel Fuel: Diesel fuel contains more energy per liter compared to petrol. This means that for the same volume of fuel, diesel engines can generate more power and travel a greater distance, resulting in lower fuel consumption.

  2. Increased Thermal Efficiency of Diesel Engines: Diesel engines operate at higher compression ratios compared to petrol engines. This higher compression ratio allows diesel engines to extract more energy from each unit of fuel. As a result, diesel engines are typically more thermally efficient, translating into lower fuel consumption.

  3. Greater Torque at Lower RPM: Diesel engines tend to produce more torque at lower engine speeds (RPM) compared to petrol engines. This characteristic allows diesel vehicles to maintain better fuel efficiency, particularly during steady-state cruising, as they require less throttle input to maintain speed.

These factors combined contribute to the generally lower fuel consumption observed in diesel cars compared to their petrol counterparts.
