What's the cost of a drive from Kirkcaldy and Dysart to Irvine?

The journey, powered by petrol, sets you back £15.6. In this calculation, we're crunching numbers based on a petrol price of 144 pence per liter and a car's thirst of 37.5 miles per gallon. If you're carpooling with a buddy, that's £7.8 each (£15.6 divided by 2). With a trio onboard, it drops to around £5.2 a head (£15.6 divided by 3), and with a full car of four, it's a mere £3.9 per person (£15.6 divided by 4).

Let's dig into the math behind it. The fuel expenditure hinges on the distance covered and the car's efficiency. For this particular jaunt, you're looking at guzzling down roughly 10.8 liters of fuel. Crunching the numbers, that's where the £15.6 total comes from for the trip from Kirkcaldy and Dysart to Irvine.

For 4 passengers: 2.7 £ (10.8/4) /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.
