In this calculation, we delve into the intricate details, where the price of petrol stands at 144 pence per liter, and the car's thirst for fuel measures 37.5 miles per gallon.

For those opting for carpooling, the financial burden lightens, with a cost of 15.25 pounds for each of two passengers, 10.17 pounds for three passengers, and merely 7.63 pounds for four passengers.

Delving deeper into the mechanics of the calculation, we ascertain the amount of fuel required for the voyage. Covering a distance of approximately 174.83 miles, the car craves around 21.2 liters of petrol. This value is derived from the division of the distance by the car's fuel consumption rate, converted into liters for precision.

With the quantity of fuel determined, we proceed to compute the total expenditure. By multiplying the fuel volume (21.2 liters) by the price per liter (144 pence), we seamlessly arrive at the grand total of 30.5 pounds.

Diesel cost from Hackney to Merthyr Tydfil.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 21.2 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 10.6 £ (21.2/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 7.07 £ (21.2/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 5.3 £ (21.2/4) /p.

Significant factors contributing to diesel cars generally having lower fuel consumption than petrol cars are:

  1. Higher Thermal Efficiency: Diesel engines typically operate at higher compression ratios than petrol engines. This higher compression ratio allows diesel engines to extract more energy from each unit of fuel, resulting in greater thermal efficiency. As a result, diesel vehicles can achieve better fuel economy compared to petrol vehicles.

  2. More Torque at Lower RPM: Diesel engines tend to produce more torque at lower engine speeds (RPM) compared to petrol engines. This characteristic enables diesel vehicles to perform more efficiently during steady-state driving conditions, requiring less throttle input to maintain speed. Consequently, diesel cars often exhibit lower fuel consumption, especially in highway driving scenarios.
