What's the expense of traveling from Cheltenham to Falkirk by car?
If you're using petrol, you're looking at an expense of 60 quid. Now, how do we get to that number? Let's break it down.
First off, we need to consider the price of petrol. In this calculation, it's set at 143 pence per liter. Then, we need to know how thirsty your car is. The fuel consumption rate for this ride is 37.5 miles per gallon.
Now, if you're carpooling, the cost gets divvied up. For two people sharing the ride, it's gonna be 30 quid each (£60 divided by 2). If you've got three folks in the car, the cost per person comes down to about 20 quid (£60 divided by 3). And if it's a full house with four passengers, each person chips in 15 quid (£60 divided by 4).
Let's dive into the nitty-gritty of the calculations. To figure out how much fuel you need for the trip, it's all about distance and fuel efficiency. The distance between Cheltenham and Falkirk is about 346.08 miles. So, to cover that distance, your car's gonna need approximately 42 liters of petrol. We got that number by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon and then converting it to liters 'cause that's what we use here.
Once we know how much fuel we need, we can calculate the total cost. Multiply the amount of fuel (42 liters) by the price per liter (143 pence), and you get 60 quid. So, there you have it, the fuel cost for your journey from Cheltenham to Falkirk: 60 pounds.
Diesel cost from Cheltenham to Falkirk.
The trip with diesel fuel costs 37.9 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 18.95 £ (37.9/2) /p.

For 4 passengers: 9.48 £ (37.9/4) /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.
