How much does it cost to travel from Ipswich to Dumbarton by car?

The journey, fueled by petrol, comes to £74.8. 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 £37.4 (£74.8/2). With three passengers, the cost reduces to £24.93 per person (£74.8/3). And for four passengers, it further decreases to £18.7 per person (£74.8/4).

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 431.66 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 431.66 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 52.3 liters of fuel needed.

The fuel cost is then calculated by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. For 52.3 liters of fuel at 143 pence per liter, the total comes to £74.8.

In conclusion, the fuel cost from Ipswich to Dumbarton amounts to £74.8.

For 3 passengers: 15.77 £ (47.3/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 11.83 £ (47.3/4) /p.

Diesel fuel and gasoline (petrol) fuel have differences:

  1. Energy Density: Diesel fuel generally has a higher energy density than petrol. This means that diesel fuel contains more energy per liter or gallon compared to petrol, resulting in diesel engines being able to generate more power and travel further distances on the same volume of fuel.

  2. Octane Rating: Petrol typically has a higher octane rating compared to diesel fuel. Octane rating indicates the fuel's resistance to knocking or pre-ignition in spark-ignition engines. Higher octane ratings are required for petrol engines with higher compression ratios or turbocharging, whereas diesel engines rely on compression ignition and do not use spark plugs.
