How much is the expense of driving from Cambridge to Selby?

The expense of driving from Cambridge to Selby using petrol amounts to £25.2. This computation is based on a petrol price of 143 pence per liter and a car's fuel efficiency of 37.5 miles per gallon. For those considering carpooling arrangements, the cost per passenger decreases with more occupants. With two passengers, the cost per person is £12.6 (£25.2 divided by 2). With three passengers, it's approximately £8.4 per person (£25.2 divided by 3), and with four passengers, it's £6.3 per person (£25.2 divided by 4).

To delve deeper into the calculations, we can explore the fuel cost calculation. This is determined by the distance traveled and the car's fuel consumption rate. For this journey, approximately 17.6 liters of fuel would be required. Multiplying this by the petrol price per liter results in the total fuel cost of £25.2 for the trip from Cambridge to Selby.
 

Diesel cost from Cambridge to Selby.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 15.9 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 7.95 £ (15.9/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 5.3 £ (15.9/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 3.98 £ (15.9/4) /p.

In general, diesel engines tend to have lower fuel consumption compared to petrol engines, all else being equal. This is primarily due to the higher energy density of diesel fuel and the higher thermal efficiency of diesel engines. Diesel fuel contains more energy per liter than petrol, and diesel engines are typically more efficient at converting that energy into mechanical work.

Additionally, diesel engines operate at higher compression ratios, which improves their thermal efficiency and allows them to extract more energy from each unit of fuel. As a result, diesel vehicles often achieve better fuel economy and can travel farther on a gallon or liter of fuel compared to petrol vehicles of similar size and performance.

Ultimately, the choice between diesel and petrol vehicles depends on various factors, including fuel economy preferences, driving patterns, environmental considerations, and local fuel prices and availability.
