How much does it cost to drive from Brentwood to Dartford with petrol?

Let's delve into the expenses of a road trip from Brentwood to Dartford. The journey using petrol will set you back 2.9 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 1.45 pounds (£2.9 divided by 2). With three passengers, the cost per person drops to around 0.97 pounds (£2.9 divided by 3). And if there are four passengers onboard, each person chips in 0.73 pounds (£2.9 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 Brentwood and Dartford is approximately 16.64 miles. So, to cover this distance, the car will require roughly 2 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 (2 liters) by the price per liter (143 pence) yields 2.9 pounds. Therefore, the fuel cost for the journey from Brentwood to Dartford is 2.9 pounds.
 

 

Air conditioning (AC) can affect automotive fuel consumption for the following reasons:

Engine Load: The engine compressor works harder to cool and circulate air when the AC is on. In city driving or when idling, this added workload might increase engine fuel consumption.

At high speeds, running the AC increases aerodynamic drag. This makes the engine work harder to maintain speed, increasing fuel consumption.

Accessory Load: When the AC is running, the blower fan and condenser fan also use engine power. Fuel consumption increases as the engine's electrical load grows.

Driving circumstances: AC affects fuel usage differently based on driving circumstances. AC use in stop-and-go traffic or at lower speeds may have a greater impact on fuel usage than highway travel.

Efficiency Settings: "Eco" mode or variable AC compressor speeds can minimize AC's fuel usage in some autos. These features improve fuel efficiency and interior cooling.

AC use might raise fuel consumption, but it's typically worth it for comfort, especially in hot weather. However, using the car's ventilation system or rolling down windows at lower speeds helps reduce AC usage and fuel consumption.

Diesel cost from Brentwood to Dartford.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 1.8 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
