How much does it cost to drive from Horsham to Dumfries with petrol?

Let's delve into the expenses of a road trip from Horsham to Dumfries. The journey using petrol will set you back 65.4 pounds. Now, let's walk through how we arrived at this figure.

Firstly, we consider the price of petrol, which is 144 pence per liter. Next, we take into account the car's fuel consumption rate, which stands at 37.5 miles per gallon.

Now, suppose you're carpooling. If there are two passengers sharing the ride, each person will contribute 32.7 pounds (£65.4 divided by 2). With three passengers, the cost per person drops to around 21.8 pounds (£65.4 divided by 3). And if there are four passengers onboard, each person chips in 16.35 pounds (£65.4 divided by 4).

Let's delve deeper into the calculations. To determine how much fuel is needed for the trip, we rely on the distance and the car's fuel efficiency. The distance between Horsham and Dumfries is approximately 374.75 miles. So, to cover this distance, the car will require roughly 45.4 liters of petrol. We obtained this value by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon and then converting it to liters.

Once we have the amount of fuel needed, we calculate the total cost. Multiplying the fuel quantity (45.4 liters) by the price per liter (144 pence) yields 65.4 pounds. Therefore, the fuel cost for the journey from Horsham to Dumfries is 65.4 pounds.
 

Diesel cost from Horsham to Dumfries.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 45.4 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 22.7 £ (45.4/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 15.13 £ (45.4/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 11.35 £ (45.4/4) /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.
