What's the expense of traveling from Edinburgh to Chelmsford by car?

If you're using petrol, you're looking at an expense of 68.8 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 34.4 quid each (£68.8 divided by 2). If you've got three folks in the car, the cost per person comes down to about 22.93 quid (£68.8 divided by 3). And if it's a full house with four passengers, each person chips in 17.2 quid (£68.8 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 Edinburgh and Chelmsford is about 397.09 miles. So, to cover that distance, your car's gonna need approximately 48.1 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 (48.1 liters) by the price per liter (143 pence), and you get 68.8 quid. So, there you have it, the fuel cost for your journey from Edinburgh to Chelmsford: 68.8 pounds.
 

 

Some things that change how much petrol a car uses are

Driving Habits: Aggressive driving habits like speeding, accelerating quickly, and stopping and starting often can use a lot more petrol.

Maintenance on Your Vehicle: Regular oil changes, tyre rotations and engine tune-ups are all parts of good maintenance that keep your car running at its best. If you don't do upkeep, your car may use more petrol and be less efficient with it.

Tyre Pressure: Tyres that aren't properly filled can make them harder to roll and use more petrol. Keeping the right tyre pressure helps the car use less petrol.

Use of the Air Conditioning: Using the air conditioning can make the engine work harder and use more petrol, especially when going in stop-and-go traffic or in the city. Lessening the time you use the AC can help you use less fuel.
