If you were to travel from Glasgow to Stirling, how much would it charge you?

A trip with petrol gasoline will cost you 4.6 pounds. According to the figure presented above, the price of petrol corresponds to 143 pence per litre, and the amount of petrol that the vehicle consumes is equivalent to 37.5 miles per gallon.
Through carpooling, the cost of this trip is 2.3 pounds for each of the two passengers.
When there are three people in the automobile, the cost of this trip is 1.53 pounds (4.6/3) for each individual passenger.
This trip will cost you 1.15 pounds for each of the four people who are travelling in the automobile.


The cost of fuel is equal to (26.31 miles / 37.5 miles per gallon) multiplied by 143 pence a litre, which is 4.6 pounds.

A more in-depth explanation of the result is as follows:

Fuel usage is miles multiplied by 4.54609 divided by the distance travelled by the vehicle.Consumption is 26.31 miles multiplied by 4.54609 divided by 37.5 miles per gallon, which equals 3.2 litres

It takes 3.2 litres of fuel.

The cost of fuel is equal to the amount of fuel required multiplied by the price per litre, which is 3.2 litres multiplied by 143 pence a litre, which is 4.6 pounds.

The cost of fuel from Glasgow to Stirling is 4.6 pounds.
 

Diesel cost from Glasgow to Stirling.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 2.9 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 1.45 £ (2.9/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 0.97 £ (2.9/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 0.73 £ (2.9/4) /p.

Diesel cars generally have lower fuel consumption compared to petrol cars for the following reasons:

  1. Higher Energy Density of Diesel Fuel: Diesel fuel contains more energy per liter compared to petrol. This means that for the same volume of fuel, diesel engines can generate more power and travel a greater distance, resulting in lower fuel consumption.

  2. Increased Thermal Efficiency of Diesel Engines: Diesel engines operate at higher compression ratios compared to petrol engines. This higher compression ratio allows diesel engines to extract more energy from each unit of fuel. As a result, diesel engines are typically more thermally efficient, translating into lower fuel consumption.

  3. Greater Torque at Lower RPM: Diesel engines tend to produce more torque at lower engine speeds (RPM) compared to petrol engines. This characteristic allows diesel vehicles to maintain better fuel efficiency, particularly during steady-state cruising, as they require less throttle input to maintain speed.

These factors combined contribute to the generally lower fuel consumption observed in diesel cars compared to their petrol counterparts.
