What's the expense of traveling from Lewes to Braintree by car?

Embarking on the journey from Lewes to Braintree, one might ponder the cost of such a venture. Indeed, the expenditure amounts to 17.6 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 8.8 pounds for each of two passengers, 5.87 pounds for three passengers, and merely 4.4 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 100.75 miles, the car craves around 12.2 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 (12.2 liters) by the price per liter (144 pence), we seamlessly arrive at the grand total of 17.6 pounds. Thus, the journey from Lewes to Braintree is marked by a fuel cost of 17.6 pounds.
 

Diesel cost from Lewes to Braintree.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 12.2 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 6.1 £ (12.2/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 4.07 £ (12.2/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 3.05 £ (12.2/4) /p.

In general, diesel engines tend to have lower fuel consumption compared to petrol engines, all else being equal. This is primarily due to the higher energy density of diesel fuel and the higher thermal efficiency of diesel engines. Diesel fuel contains more energy per liter than petrol, and diesel engines are typically more efficient at converting that energy into mechanical work.

Additionally, diesel engines operate at higher compression ratios, which improves their thermal efficiency and allows them to extract more energy from each unit of fuel. As a result, diesel vehicles often achieve better fuel economy and can travel farther on a gallon or liter of fuel compared to petrol vehicles of similar size and performance.

Ultimately, the choice between diesel and petrol vehicles depends on various factors, including fuel economy preferences, driving patterns, environmental considerations, and local fuel prices and availability.
