What's the expense of traveling from Leeds to Northampton by car?

The trip fueled by petrol comes to £22.7. 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 £11.35 (£22.7/2). For three passengers, the cost per person reduces to £7.57 (£22.7/3), and with four passengers, it further decreases to £5.68 (£22.7/4).

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 131.05 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 131.05 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 15.9 liters of fuel needed.

Next, we calculate the fuel cost by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. With 15.9 liters of fuel at 143 pence per liter, the total cost comes to £22.7.

In summary, the fuel cost for the trip from Leeds to Northampton amounts to £22.7.

 

There are several reasons that affect fuel consumption when you drive. The most important are:

  1. Driving Habits: Aggressive driving behaviors such as rapid acceleration, speeding, and frequent braking can significantly increase fuel consumption.

  2. Vehicle Maintenance: Proper maintenance, including regular oil changes, tire rotations, and engine tune-ups, ensures optimal fuel efficiency. Neglecting maintenance can lead to decreased fuel efficiency and higher fuel consumption.

  3. Vehicle Specifications: The make and model of the vehicle, engine size, weight, aerodynamics, and fuel efficiency rating all play a role in determining fuel consumption.

  4. Driving Conditions: Factors such as traffic congestion, road conditions, elevation changes, and weather conditions can affect fuel consumption. Stop-and-go driving in heavy traffic or driving uphill requires more fuel compared to steady highway driving on flat terrain.

  5. Fuel Quality: The quality of fuel used, including octane rating and the presence of additives, can impact fuel efficiency. Lower-quality fuels may lead to decreased efficiency and higher consumption.
