How much is the expense of driving from Lichfield to Neath?

The expense of driving from Lichfield to Neath using petrol amounts to £27.4. This computation is based on a petrol price of 143 pence per liter and a car's fuel efficiency of 37.5 miles per gallon. For those considering carpooling arrangements, the cost per passenger decreases with more occupants. With two passengers, the cost per person is £13.7 (£27.4 divided by 2). With three passengers, it's approximately £9.13 per person (£27.4 divided by 3), and with four passengers, it's £6.85 per person (£27.4 divided by 4).

To delve deeper into the calculations, we can explore the fuel cost calculation. This is determined by the distance traveled and the car's fuel consumption rate. For this journey, approximately 19.2 liters of fuel would be required. Multiplying this by the petrol price per liter results in the total fuel cost of £27.4 for the trip from Lichfield to Neath.
 


Diesel cost from Lichfield to Neath.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 17.3 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 8.65 £ (17.3/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 5.77 £ (17.3/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 4.33 £ (17.3/4) /p.

For these reasons, diesel cars use less fuel than petrol cars:

Diesel fuel has more energy per litre than petrol. Diesel engines can drive farther and provide more power for the same fuel volume, reducing fuel consumption.

Diesel engines have higher compression ratios than petrol engines, increasing thermal efficiency. Diesel engines get more energy from each fuel unit due to this increased compression ratio. Because diesel engines are thermally efficient, they use less fuel.

Diesel engines create more torque at lower RPM than petrol engines. Diesel vehicles require less throttle input to maintain speed, which improves fuel efficiency, especially during steady-state driving.

Diesel cars consume less fuel than petrol cars due to these considerations.
