Embarking on the journey from Lancaster to Waveney, one might ponder the cost of such a venture. Indeed, the expenditure amounts to 48.6 pounds when fueled by petrol. In this calculation, we delve into the intricate details, where the price of petrol stands at 144 pence per liter, and the car's thirst for fuel measures 37.5 miles per gallon.

For those opting for carpooling, the financial burden lightens, with a cost of 24.3 pounds for each of two passengers, 16.2 pounds for three passengers, and merely 12.15 pounds for four passengers.

Delving deeper into the mechanics of the calculation, we ascertain the amount of fuel required for the voyage. Covering a distance of approximately 278.61 miles, the car craves around 33.8 liters of petrol. This value is derived from the division of the distance by the car's fuel consumption rate, converted into liters for precision.

With the quantity of fuel determined, we proceed to compute the total expenditure. By multiplying the fuel volume (33.8 liters) by the price per liter (144 pence), we seamlessly arrive at the grand total of 48.6 pounds.

Diesel cost from Lancaster to Waveney.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 33.7 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).

For 3 passengers: 11.23 £ (33.7/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 8.43 £ (33.7/4) /p.

Diesel engines consume less fuel than petrol engines, all else being equal. Diesel fuel's higher energy density and diesel engines' superior thermal efficiency are the main reasons. Diesel fuel has more energy per litre than petrol, and diesel engines utilise that energy more efficiently.

Higher compression ratios improve thermal efficiency and allow diesel engines to extract more energy from each fuel unit. Diesel vehicles get better fuel efficiency and travel farther per gallon or litre than petrol vehicles of equal size and performance.

The choice between diesel and petrol automobiles depends on fuel economy, driving patterns, environmental concerns, and local fuel prices and availability.
