How much does a trip from London to Brighton set you back in petrol costs?

The answer: £2.6. In this calculation, we're considering a petrol price of 144 pence per liter and a car's fuel efficiency rated at 37.5 miles per gallon. Carpooling with two passengers reduces the cost per person to £1.3 (£2.6 divided by 2). With three passengers, the expense drops to approximately £0.87 per passenger (£2.6 divided by 3), and with a full car of four, it's just £0.65 per passenger (£2.6 divided by 4).

Now, let's dissect the numbers behind this. The fuel cost is determined by the distance traveled and the car's fuel consumption rate. For this journey, you'll need approximately 1.8 liters of fuel. Crunching the figures, that's where the total of £2.6 comes from for the journey from Islington to Kingston upon Thames.
 

Diesel cost from Islington to Kingston upon Thames.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 1.8 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 0.9 £ (1.8/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 0.6 £ (1.8/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 0.45 £ (1.8/4) /p.

Diesel fuel and petrol (gasoline) fuel in terms of emissions:

  • Diesel Fuel: Diesel combustion generally results in higher emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter compared to petrol combustion. This is primarily due to the combustion characteristics of diesel engines and the composition of diesel fuel. However, modern diesel vehicles incorporate advanced emission control technologies such as particulate filters and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems to mitigate these emissions effectively.

  • Petrol (Gasoline): Petrol combustion typically leads to lower emissions of nitrogen oxides and particulate matter compared to diesel combustion. This is because petrol itself contains fewer impurities, resulting in fewer emitted particulates. Additionally, petrol engines may emit lower levels of nitrogen oxides due to differences in combustion processes and engine design.

In summary, while both diesel and petrol engines emit pollutants, diesel engines historically produced higher emissions. Nevertheless, advancements in emission control technologies have enabled both diesel and petrol vehicles to meet strict emissions standards.
