How much does it cost to travel from Hastings to Wigan by car?

The journey, fueled by petrol, comes to £48.4. In this calculation, we've assumed a petrol price of 143 pence per liter and the car's petrol consumption at 37.5 miles per gallon.

For those considering carpooling, with two passengers, the cost per person is £24.2 (£48.4/2). With three passengers, the cost reduces to £16.13 per person (£48.4/3). And for four passengers, it further decreases to £12.1 per person (£48.4/4).

To break it down further, here's how we arrive at the result:

The fuel required is determined by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption. For a journey of 279 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 279 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 33.8 liters of fuel needed.

The fuel cost is then calculated by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. For 33.8 liters of fuel at 143 pence per liter, the total comes to £48.4.

In conclusion, the fuel cost from Hastings to Wigan amounts to £48.4.

Diesel cost from Hastings to Wigan.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 30.5 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 15.25 £ (30.5/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 10.17 £ (30.5/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 7.63 £ (30.5/4) /p.

The main reasons diesel cars use less fuel than petrol cars are:

Diesel engines have higher compression ratios than petrol engines, improving thermal efficiency. Diesel engines extract more energy from each fuel unit due to this increased compression ratio, improving thermal efficiency. Diesel automobiles have superior fuel economy than petrol ones.

Diesel engines create more torque at lower RPM than petrol engines. Diesel vehicles perform better in steady-state driving, requiring less throttle input to maintain speed. Thus, diesel cars have reduced fuel consumption, especially on highways.
