What's the expense of traveling from Kingston upon Thames to Wakefield by car?

The trip fueled by petrol comes to £34.4. This calculation is based on a petrol price of 143 pence per liter and the car's consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon.

For those interested in carpooling, the cost per passenger decreases with more occupants. With two passengers, each person's share is £17.2 (£34.4/2). For three passengers, the cost per person reduces to £11.47 (£34.4/3), and with four passengers, it further decreases to £8.6 (£34.4/4).

To delve deeper into the calculation, let's examine how we arrive at the result:

Firstly, we determine the fuel required by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption rate. For a journey of 198.56 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 198.56 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 24.1 liters of fuel needed.

Next, we calculate the fuel cost by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. With 24.1 liters of fuel at 143 pence per liter, the total cost comes to £34.4.

In summary, the fuel cost for the trip from Kingston upon Thames to Wakefield amounts to £34.4.

Diesel cost from Kingston upon Thames to Wakefield.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 21.7 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 10.85 £ (21.7/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 7.23 £ (21.7/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 5.43 £ (21.7/4) /p.

Fuel efficiency of diesel and petrol: 

Diesel Fuel: Diesel engines use less fuel than petrol ones. Diesel fuel's higher energy density and diesel engines' superior thermal efficiency are the main reasons. Diesel fuel has more energy per litre or gallon than petrol, hence diesel engines can extract more energy. Diesel engines also have larger compression ratios, improving thermal efficiency. Diesel vehicles get better fuel efficiency and travel farther per gallon or litre than petrol vehicles of equal size and performance. 
Fuel efficiency is lower for petrol engines than diesel engines. Petrol is still an effective internal combustion engine fuel, but it has less energy density than diesel. This means petrol engines may need more fuel than diesel engines to function similarly. In recent years, turbocharging and direct injection have increased petrol engine fuel efficiency, closing the gap between petrol and diesel vehicles. 
Due to their higher energy density and thermal efficiency, diesel engines are more fuel-efficient than petrol engines. Diesel and petrol vehicle fuel efficiency can also be affected by driving habits, vehicle design, and other variables.
