How much does it cost to drive from Chelmsford to Adur with petrol?

Let's delve into the expenses of a road trip from Chelmsford to Adur. The journey using petrol will set you back 15.6 pounds. Now, let's walk through how we arrived at this figure.

Firstly, we consider the price of petrol, which is 144 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 7.8 pounds (£15.6 divided by 2). With three passengers, the cost per person drops to around 5.2 pounds (£15.6 divided by 3). And if there are four passengers onboard, each person chips in 3.9 pounds (£15.6 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 Chelmsford and Adur is approximately 89.16 miles. So, to cover this distance, the car will require roughly 10.8 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 (10.8 liters) by the price per liter (144 pence) yields 15.6 pounds. Therefore, the fuel cost for the journey from Chelmsford to Adur is 15.6 pounds.
 


Diesel cost from Chelmsford to Adur.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 10.8 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 5.4 £ (10.8/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 3.6 £ (10.8/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 2.7 £ (10.8/4) /p.

Significant factors contributing to diesel cars generally having lower fuel consumption than petrol cars are:

  1. Higher Thermal Efficiency: Diesel engines typically operate at higher compression ratios than petrol engines. This higher compression ratio allows diesel engines to extract more energy from each unit of fuel, resulting in greater thermal efficiency. As a result, diesel vehicles can achieve better fuel economy compared to petrol vehicles.

  2. More Torque at Lower RPM: Diesel engines tend to produce more torque at lower engine speeds (RPM) compared to petrol engines. This characteristic enables diesel vehicles to perform more efficiently during steady-state driving conditions, requiring less throttle input to maintain speed. Consequently, diesel cars often exhibit lower fuel consumption, especially in highway driving scenarios.
