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

The answer: £22.1. In this calculation, we're considering a petrol price of 143 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 £11.05 (£22.1 divided by 2). With three passengers, the expense drops to approximately £7.37 per passenger (£22.1 divided by 3), and with a full car of four, it's just £5.53 per passenger (£22.1 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 15.4 liters of fuel. Crunching the figures, that's where the total of £22.1 comes from for the journey from Harrogate to Peterborough.
 

Diesel cost from Harrogate to Peterborough.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 13.9 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 6.95 £ (13.9/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 4.63 £ (13.9/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 3.48 £ (13.9/4) /p.

Diesel fuel and gasoline (gasoline) fuel in terms of how well they use fuel: 

Diesel Fuel: In general, diesel engines use less gas than petrol engines. This is mostly because diesel fuel has a higher energy density and diesel engines are better at using heat. Compared to gasoline, diesel fuel has more energy per litre or gallon. This means that diesel engines can get more energy from each unit of fuel. Diesel engines also have higher compression ratios, which makes them even more thermally efficient. Because of this, diesel cars usually get better gas mileage and can go farther on a gallon or litre of gas than gasoline cars of the same size and speed. 
Petrol (petrol): Diesel engines use less fuel than petrol engines in general. Even though gas is still a good fuel for internal combustion engines, diesel fuel usually has a higher energy density. This suggests that gas engines might need more fuel to work as well as diesel engines. The difference between petrol and diesel cars has become smaller, though, thanks to improvements in petrol engine technology like turbocharging and direct injection. 
Overall, both diesel and gasoline engines can be used to get good gas mileage, but diesel engines tend to be better because they store energy more efficiently and cool down faster. But how people drive, how the car is built, and other things can also affect how much fuel a diesel or gas car uses.
