How much does it cost to drive from East Kilbride to Sunderland with petrol?

Let's delve into the expenses of a road trip from East Kilbride to Sunderland. The journey using petrol will set you back 27.8 pounds. Now, let's walk through how we arrived at this figure.

Firstly, we consider the price of petrol, which is 143 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 13.9 pounds (£27.8 divided by 2). With three passengers, the cost per person drops to around 9.27 pounds (£27.8 divided by 3). And if there are four passengers onboard, each person chips in 6.95 pounds (£27.8 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 East Kilbride and Sunderland is approximately 160.35 miles. So, to cover this distance, the car will require roughly 19.4 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 (19.4 liters) by the price per liter (143 pence) yields 27.8 pounds. Therefore, the fuel cost for the journey from East Kilbride to Sunderland is 27.8 pounds.
 

 

The following factors affect automotive fuel consumption:

Traffic Congestion: Heavy traffic causes frequent stops and idling. Constant acceleration and deceleration might increase fuel consumption compared to open roadways.

Vehicle Weight: Heavy baggage or superfluous goods can strain the engine and increase fuel consumption. Removing excess weight boosts fuel efficiency.

Roads with steep inclines or drops can affect fuel consumption, especially for smaller engines. Uphill climbing takes more engine power and petrololine, whereas descending downhill may require more braking and fuel to regulate.

Weather: Rain, snow, and strong winds can affect fuel use. Driver speed and behaviour may change under these conditions, affecting fuel efficiency. Extreme temperatures also effect engine performance and fuel consumption.
