How much does a trip from London to Brighton set you back in petrol costs?

The answer: £37.5. In this calculation, we're considering a petrol price of 144 pence per liter and a car's fuel efficiency rated at 37.5 miles per gallon. Carpooling with two passengers reduces the cost per person to £18.75 (£37.5 divided by 2). With three passengers, the expense drops to approximately £12.5 per passenger (£37.5 divided by 3), and with a full car of four, it's just £9.38 per passenger (£37.5 divided by 4).

Now, let's dissect the numbers behind this. The fuel cost is determined by the distance traveled and the car's fuel consumption rate. For this journey, you'll need approximately 26.1 liters of fuel. Crunching the figures, that's where the total of £37.5 comes from for the journey from East Kilbride to Oldham.
 

Diesel cost from East Kilbride to Oldham.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 26 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 13 £ (26/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 8.67 £ (26/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 6.5 £ (26/4) /p.


Generally, diesel engines typically consume less fuel than petrol engines when all other factors are held constant. This is mainly because diesel fuel has a higher energy density and diesel engines are more thermally efficient. Diesel contains more energy per liter than petrol, and diesel engines are usually better at converting this energy into mechanical power. Moreover, diesel engines operate at higher compression ratios, enhancing their thermal efficiency and enabling them to extract more energy from each unit of fuel. Consequently, diesel vehicles often deliver superior fuel economy and can cover longer distances per gallon or liter of fuel compared to petrol vehicles of similar specifications.
