What's the expense of traveling from Falkirk to West Lancashire by car?

If you're using petrol, you're looking at an expense of 37.5 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 18.75 quid each (£37.5 divided by 2). If you've got three folks in the car, the cost per person comes down to about 12.5 quid (£37.5 divided by 3). And if it's a full house with four passengers, each person chips in 9.38 quid (£37.5 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 Falkirk and West Lancashire is about 216.44 miles. So, to cover that distance, your car's gonna need approximately 26.2 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 (26.2 liters) by the price per liter (143 pence), and you get 37.5 quid. So, there you have it, the fuel cost for your journey from Falkirk to West Lancashire: 37.5 pounds.
 

Diesel cost from Falkirk to West Lancashire.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 23.7 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 11.85 £ (23.7/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 7.9 £ (23.7/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 5.93 £ (23.7/4) /p.

When compared to gasoline-powered vehicles, diesel vehicles often have a lower fuel usage percentage for the following reasons:

Diesel fuel has a higher energy density than gasoline, meaning that it contains more energy per litre than gasoline does. Diesel engines are able to create more power and travel further for the same amount of gasoline, which results in a lower overall fuel consumption. This is because diesel engines also travel further.

Diesel engines operate at higher compression ratios than petrol engines, which results in increased thermal efficiency for diesel engines. Because of this increased compression ratio, diesel engines are able to extract a greater amount of energy from each individual dose of fuel. Because of this, diesel engines are often more thermally efficient, which results in a reduction in the amount of fuel these engines consume.

Diesel engines have a tendency to produce higher torque at lower engine speeds (RPM) compared to petrol engines. This is because diesel engines are more efficient than petrol engines. Because diesel vehicles require less throttle input to maintain speed, this trait enables diesel vehicles to retain superior fuel efficiency, particularly during steady-state cruising. This is especially true during the cruising phase.

In comparison to their gasoline-powered counterparts, diesel vehicles have a generally lower fuel consumption, which can be attributed to the combined effects of these particular characteristics.
