How much does it cost to drive from Ipswich to Derby?

If you're using petrol, it's gonna set you back 27.9 quid. In this calculation, they're saying the petrol price is 143 pence per liter, and the car's gonna guzzle down 37.5 miles for every gallon of that stuff.

Now, if you're carpooling, the cost gets split up between everyone riding. So, if there are two people in the car, it's gonna be 13.95 quid each (£27.9 divided by 2). With three buddies on board, it works out to around 9.3 quid per person (£27.9 divided by 3). And if you've got a full car with four people, it's only 6.98 quid per person (£27.9 divided by 4).

Breaking down the numbers, the fuel cost is calculated based on how far you're going and how much gas your car chugs. For this trip, you're gonna need about 19.5 liters of fuel. They figured that out by dividing the distance of 160.7 miles by the car's fuel consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon, and then converting that to liters 'cause, you know, the UK uses liters.

So, you take the fuel needed, which is 19.5 liters, and you multiply it by the price per liter, which is 143 pence. And voilà, you got yourself the total fuel cost for the trip from Ipswich to Derby: 27.9 quid.

 

Diesel cost from Ipswich to Derby.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 17.6 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 8.8 £ (17.6/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 5.87 £ (17.6/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 4.4 £ (17.6/4) /p.

For these reasons, diesel cars use less fuel than petrol cars:

Diesel fuel has more energy per litre than petrol. Diesel engines can drive farther and provide more power for the same fuel volume, reducing fuel consumption.

Diesel engines have higher compression ratios than petrol engines, increasing thermal efficiency. Diesel engines get more energy from each fuel unit due to this increased compression ratio. Because diesel engines are thermally efficient, they use less fuel.

Diesel engines create more torque at lower RPM than petrol engines. Diesel vehicles require less throttle input to maintain speed, which improves fuel efficiency, especially during steady-state driving.

Diesel cars consume less fuel than petrol cars due to these considerations.
