How much does it cost to travel from Kirklees to Gateshead by car?

The journey, fueled by petrol, comes to £21.2. 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 £10.6 (£21.2/2). With three passengers, the cost reduces to £7.07 per person (£21.2/3). And for four passengers, it further decreases to £5.3 per person (£21.2/4).

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 122.53 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 122.53 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 14.9 liters of fuel needed.

The fuel cost is then calculated by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. For 14.9 liters of fuel at 143 pence per liter, the total comes to £21.2.

In conclusion, the fuel cost from Kirklees to Gateshead amounts to £21.2.

 

A lot of things can have a big effect on how much petrol a car uses, but the most common ones are: 

 

  • Driving Habits: Aggressive driving habits like speeding, accelerating quickly, and stopping and starting often can use a lot more petrol. 
     
  • Maintenance on Your Vehicle: Regular oil changes, tire rotations, and engine tune-ups are all parts of good maintenance that keep your car running at its best. If you don't do upkeep, your car may use more petrol and be less efficient with it. 
     
  • Car Type: Some of the things that affect how much fuel a car uses are its make and model, its engine size, its weight, its aerodynamics, and its fuel economy rating. 
     
  • Conditions of the Road: Things like traffic jams, bad roads, changes in elevation, and the weather can all affect how much petrol you use. It takes more petrol to drive stop-and-go in heavy traffic or uphill than to drive steadily on a highway on flat ground. 
     
  • Importance of Fuel Quality: The octane number and additives in the fuel can affect how well it works. Fuels of lower quality may make engines less efficient and cause them to use more fuel. 
     
  • Route: The path you take can change how much petrol you use. It is possible to use less petrol by choosing roads with slower speed limits, less traffic, and fewer stops. 
     
  • Cargo: Having extra weight in the car, like big cargo or roof racks, makes the aerodynamic drag higher and needs more fuel to keep the speed constant, which means higher fuel use.
