How much does it cost to drive from Lichfield to Carlisle with petrol?

Let's delve into the expenses of a road trip from Lichfield to Carlisle. The journey using petrol will set you back 33.1 pounds. Now, let's walk through how we arrived at this figure.

Firstly, we consider the price of petrol, which is 143 pence per liter. Next, we take into account the car's fuel consumption rate, which stands at 37.5 miles per gallon.

Now, suppose you're carpooling. If there are two passengers sharing the ride, each person will contribute 16.55 pounds (£33.1 divided by 2). With three passengers, the cost per person drops to around 11.03 pounds (£33.1 divided by 3). And if there are four passengers onboard, each person chips in 8.28 pounds (£33.1 divided by 4).

Let's delve deeper into the calculations. To determine how much fuel is needed for the trip, we rely on the distance and the car's fuel efficiency. The distance between Lichfield and Carlisle is approximately 190.77 miles. So, to cover this distance, the car will require roughly 23.1 liters of petrol. We obtained this value by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon and then converting it to liters.

Once we have the amount of fuel needed, we calculate the total cost. Multiplying the fuel quantity (23.1 liters) by the price per liter (143 pence) yields 33.1 pounds. Therefore, the fuel cost for the journey from Lichfield to Carlisle is 33.1 pounds.
 

 

How much petrol a car uses depends in large part on the driver's habits. In this way: 

Increased fuel consumption might be a result of aggressive driving practices, including quick acceleration and frequent hard braking. More fuel efficiency is achieved with smooth, progressive acceleration and deceleration. 
Increased aerodynamic drag causes fuel consumption to rise with increasing speed. One way to save petrol is to keep your speed modest and constant. 
Leaving the engine running when stopped or waiting wastes petrololine; this is known as idling. To save petrol, turn off the engine when you're not moving for a long time. 
Using the Air Conditioner: Using the air conditioner at its highest setting can lead to an increase in fuel usage. You may conserve fuel by using the air conditioner rarely and by choosing natural ventilation when you can. 
Overloading: The engine has to work harder to move large goods or extraneous objects around, which increases fuel consumption. Fuel economy can be enhanced by reducing excess weight.
