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

Let's delve into the expenses of a road trip from Lichfield to Newton Mearns. The journey using petrol will set you back 50 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 25 pounds (£50 divided by 2). With three passengers, the cost per person drops to around 16.67 pounds (£50 divided by 3). And if there are four passengers onboard, each person chips in 12.5 pounds (£50 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 Newton Mearns is approximately 288.43 miles. So, to cover this distance, the car will require roughly 35 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 (35 liters) by the price per liter (143 pence) yields 50 pounds. Therefore, the fuel cost for the journey from Lichfield to Newton Mearns is 50 pounds.
 

Diesel cost from Lichfield to Newton Mearns.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 31.6 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 15.8 £ (31.6/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 10.53 £ (31.6/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 7.9 £ (31.6/4) /p.

Diesel fuel and gasoline (petrol) fuel have differences:

  1. Compression Ignition vs. Spark Ignition: Diesel engines operate on compression ignition, where the fuel-air mixture ignites spontaneously due to high pressure and temperature, while petrol engines rely on spark ignition from spark plugs. This fundamental difference in combustion processes leads to different engine designs and performance characteristics.

  2. Fuel Efficiency: Diesel engines tend to be more fuel-efficient than petrol engines, primarily due to their higher compression ratios and thermal efficiency. Diesel engines can extract more energy from each unit of fuel compared to petrol engines, resulting in better fuel economy and lower fuel consumption.
