How much does it cost to drive from Liverpool to Darlington with petrol?
Let's delve into the expenses of a road trip from Liverpool to Darlington. The journey using petrol will set you back 24.2 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 12.1 pounds (£24.2 divided by 2). With three passengers, the cost per person drops to around 8.07 pounds (£24.2 divided by 3). And if there are four passengers onboard, each person chips in 6.05 pounds (£24.2 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 Liverpool and Darlington is approximately 139.74 miles. So, to cover this distance, the car will require roughly 16.9 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 (16.9 liters) by the price per liter (143 pence) yields 24.2 pounds. Therefore, the fuel cost for the journey from Liverpool to Darlington is 24.2 pounds.
Driving habits can have a significant impact on car fuel consumption. Some explanations are below:
-
Acceleration and Deceleration: Aggressive driving habits such as rapid acceleration and frequent hard braking can lead to increased fuel consumption. Smooth, gradual acceleration and deceleration are more fuel-efficient.
-
Speeding: Driving at high speeds consumes more fuel due to increased aerodynamic drag. Maintaining a moderate and consistent speed can help conserve fuel.
-
Idling: Leaving the engine running while parked or waiting unnecessarily burns fuel. Turning off the engine when stationary for extended periods can help reduce fuel consumption.
-
Air Conditioning Usage: Running the air conditioning system at maximum settings can increase fuel consumption. Using the AC sparingly and opting for natural ventilation when possible can save fuel.
-
Overloading: Carrying excessive weight in the vehicle, such as heavy cargo or unnecessary items, can increase fuel consumption by putting additional strain on the engine. Removing unnecessary weight can improve fuel efficiency.
