What is the financial outlay associated with traveling from Cheltenham to Gateshead by car?

The journey, powered by petrol, incurs a cost of £44.2. In this computational scenario, the price of petrol is assumed to be 143 pence per liter, and the car's fuel efficiency stands at 37.5 miles per gallon.

For individuals contemplating carpooling arrangements, the expenditure per traveler diminishes as the number of passengers increases. With two passengers, the cost per person amounts to £22.1 (£44.2/2). For a trio of passengers, the cost per person reduces to £14.73 (£44.2/3), and for a quartet of passengers, it further decreases to £11.05 (£44.2/4).

To provide further elucidation on the calculation process, let us dissect how the final figure is derived:

Initially, the requisite fuel quantity is determined by dividing the distance traveled by the car's fuel consumption rate. For a journey spanning 254.75 miles, this computation entails multiplying 254.75 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and subsequently dividing by the car's fuel efficiency of 37.5 mpg, resulting in a requirement of 30.9 liters of fuel.

Subsequently, the fuel expenditure is computed by multiplying the amount of fuel required by the price per liter. Given a consumption of 30.9 liters of fuel at a rate of 143 pence per liter, the cumulative cost equals £44.2.

In summation, the total fuel expenditure for the trip from Cheltenham to Gateshead stands at £44.2.


Diesel cost from Cheltenham to Gateshead.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 27.9 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 13.95 £ (27.9/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 9.3 £ (27.9/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 6.98 £ (27.9/4) /p.

When compared to gasoline-powered vehicles, diesel vehicles often have a lower fuel usage percentage for the following reasons:

Diesel fuel has a higher energy density than gasoline, meaning that it contains more energy per litre than gasoline does. Diesel engines are able to create more power and travel further for the same amount of gasoline, which results in a lower overall fuel consumption. This is because diesel engines also travel further.

Diesel engines operate at higher compression ratios than petrol engines, which results in increased thermal efficiency for diesel engines. Because of this increased compression ratio, diesel engines are able to extract a greater amount of energy from each individual dose of fuel. Because of this, diesel engines are often more thermally efficient, which results in a reduction in the amount of fuel these engines consume.

Diesel engines have a tendency to produce higher torque at lower engine speeds (RPM) compared to petrol engines. This is because diesel engines are more efficient than petrol engines. Because diesel vehicles require less throttle input to maintain speed, this trait enables diesel vehicles to retain superior fuel efficiency, particularly during steady-state cruising. This is especially true during the cruising phase.

In comparison to their gasoline-powered counterparts, diesel vehicles have a generally lower fuel consumption, which can be attributed to the combined effects of these particular characteristics.
