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

The answer: £52.4. 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 £26.2 (£52.4 divided by 2). With three passengers, the expense drops to approximately £17.47 per passenger (£52.4 divided by 3), and with a full car of four, it's just £13.1 per passenger (£52.4 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 36.4 liters of fuel. Crunching the figures, that's where the total of £52.4 comes from for the journey from Elgin to Gateshead.
 

Diesel cost from Elgin to Gateshead.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 36.4 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 18.2 £ (36.4/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 12.13 £ (36.4/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 9.1 £ (36.4/4) /p.

Diesel fuel and gasoline (petrol) fuel have differences:

  1. Energy Density: Diesel fuel generally has a higher energy density than petrol. This means that diesel fuel contains more energy per liter or gallon compared to petrol, resulting in diesel engines being able to generate more power and travel further distances on the same volume of fuel.

  2. Octane Rating: Petrol typically has a higher octane rating compared to diesel fuel. Octane rating indicates the fuel's resistance to knocking or pre-ignition in spark-ignition engines. Higher octane ratings are required for petrol engines with higher compression ratios or turbocharging, whereas diesel engines rely on compression ignition and do not use spark plugs.
