How much is the expense of driving from Bolsover to Reading?

The expense of driving from Bolsover to Reading, using petrol as the fuel source, amounts to £25.6. This calculation derives from considering the petrol price as 143 pence per liter and the car's fuel efficiency at 37.5 miles per gallon. When carpooling with two passengers, the cost of the trip per passenger is halved to £12.8 (£25.6 divided by 2). With three passengers, the expense drops to approximately £8.53 per passenger (£25.6 divided by 3), and with four passengers, it's reduced further to £6.4 per passenger (£25.6 divided by 4).

To delve into the details of the calculations, the fuel cost computation is reliant on the distance traveled and the car's fuel consumption rate. For the journey from Bolsover to Reading, approximately 17.9 liters of fuel would be required. This amount is determined by dividing the distance of 147.9 miles by the car's fuel consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon, and then converting from gallons to liters using the conversion factor of 4.54609 liters per gallon.

Multiplying the fuel needed by the petrol price per liter results in the total fuel cost of £25.6 for the trip. This breakdown illustrates the impact of various factors, such as fuel price and consumption rate, on the overall cost of the journey, providing insights for individuals planning similar trips and requiring budget estimates.
 

Diesel cost from Bolsover to Reading.

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.

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.
