How much does it cost to travel from East Kilbride to Purbeck by car?

The journey from East Kilbride to Purbeck by car comes with a price tag of £75.3 if you're using petrol. Let's break it down. The petrol price we're talking about here is 143 pence per liter, and the car chugs along at 37.5 miles per gallon. Now, if you're thinking about carpooling with a couple of mates, each of you only has to fork out £37.65 for the trip (£75.3 divided by 2). With three buddies on board, it's about £25.1 each (£75.3 divided by 3), and if you've got a full car of four, it's just £18.83 each (£75.3 divided by 4). So, that's the financial aspect of the journey.

Now, let's dive into the nitty-gritty of how we got these figures. The fuel cost calculation is based on how far you're traveling and how thirsty your car is. For this journey, you'd need about 52.7 liters of fuel. And that's where the £75.3 comes from for the trip from East Kilbride to Purbeck.

In summary, the total fuel cost for the journey is £75.3, factoring in the distance, petrol price, and car fuel consumption. Whether you're flying solo or sharing the ride with friends, knowing the breakdown of these costs can help you plan your trip and budget accordingly.
 


Diesel cost from East Kilbride to Purbeck.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 47.6 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 23.8 £ (47.6/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 15.87 £ (47.6/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 11.9 £ (47.6/4) /p.

When comparing diesel fuel and petrol (gasoline) fuel in terms of octane rating, there's a significant distinction:

  1. Petrol:

    • Petrol typically has an octane rating ranging from 87 to 95 in most markets.

    • Octane rating measures the fuel's resistance to premature detonation or knocking in spark-ignition engines.

    • Higher octane ratings are crucial for high-performance petrol engines with higher compression ratios or turbocharging, as they help prevent engine knocking and allow for more efficient combustion.

  2. Diesel Fuel:

    • Diesel fuel doesn't have an octane rating in the same sense as petrol because it's not used in spark-ignition engines.

    • Diesel engines rely on compression ignition rather than spark ignition, meaning the fuel-air mixture ignites spontaneously due to high pressure and temperature.

    • Therefore, diesel fuel is designed to ignite under the high compression conditions found in diesel engines, and its properties are optimized for this type of combustion rather than for octane rating.

In essence, while petrol relies on octane rating to ensure proper combustion in spark-ignition engines, diesel fuel is formulated to ignite under the high-pressure conditions of compression ignition in diesel engines, rendering octane rating irrelevant for diesel fuel.
