How much does a trip from London to Brighton set you back in petrol costs?

The answer: £45.4. In this calculation, we're considering a petrol price of 143 pence per liter and a car's fuel efficiency rated at 37.5 miles per gallon. Carpooling with two passengers reduces the cost per person to £22.7 (£45.4 divided by 2). With three passengers, the expense drops to approximately £15.13 per passenger (£45.4 divided by 3), and with a full car of four, it's just £11.35 per passenger (£45.4 divided by 4).

Now, let's dissect the numbers behind this. The fuel cost is determined by the distance traveled and the car's fuel consumption rate. For this journey, you'll need approximately 31.8 liters of fuel. Crunching the figures, that's where the total of £45.4 comes from for the journey from Leeds to West Dorset.
 

 

Things that affect car fuel consumption:

Fuel consumption increases with aggressive driving habits including speeding, accelerating, and braking.

Vehicle Maintenance: Oil changes, tyre rotations and engine tune-ups maximise fuel economy. Neglecting maintenance reduces fuel efficiency and increases consumption.

Poor tyre inflation increases rolling resistance and fuel consumption. Proper tyre pressure improves fuel economy.

Air conditioning use increases engine load and fuel consumption, especially in stop-and-go traffic or city travel. AC usage can be reduced to save fuel.
