Generally, diesel engines typically consume less fuel than petrol engines when all other factors are held constant. This is mainly because diesel fuel has a higher energy density and diesel engines are more thermally efficient. Diesel contains more energy per liter than petrol, and diesel engines are usually better at converting this energy into mechanical power. Moreover, diesel engines operate at higher compression ratios, enhancing their thermal efficiency and enabling them to extract more energy from each unit of fuel. Consequently, diesel vehicles often deliver superior fuel economy and can cover longer distances per gallon or liter of fuel compared to petrol vehicles of similar specifications.
