How much does it cost to travel from London to Harrogate by car?
The journey, fueled by petrol, comes to £36.4. In this calculation, we've assumed a petrol price of 143 pence per liter and the car's petrol consumption at 37.5 miles per gallon.
For those considering carpooling, with two passengers, the cost per person is £18.2 (£36.4/2). With three passengers, the cost reduces to £12.13 per person (£36.4/3). And for four passengers, it further decreases to £9.1 per person (£36.4/4).
To break it down further, here's how we arrive at the result:
The fuel required is determined by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption. For a journey of 209.65 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 209.65 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 25.4 liters of fuel needed.
The fuel cost is then calculated by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. For 25.4 liters of fuel at 143 pence per liter, the total comes to £36.4.

Diesel fuel and petrol (gasoline) fuel in terms of emissions:
-
Diesel Fuel: Diesel combustion generally results in higher emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx) and particulate matter compared to petrol combustion. This is primarily due to the combustion characteristics of diesel engines and the composition of diesel fuel. However, modern diesel vehicles incorporate advanced emission control technologies such as particulate filters and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems to mitigate these emissions effectively.
-
Petrol (Gasoline): Petrol combustion typically leads to lower emissions of nitrogen oxides and particulate matter compared to diesel combustion. This is because petrol itself contains fewer impurities, resulting in fewer emitted particulates. Additionally, petrol engines may emit lower levels of nitrogen oxides due to differences in combustion processes and engine design.
In summary, while both diesel and petrol engines emit pollutants, diesel engines historically produced higher emissions. Nevertheless, advancements in emission control technologies have enabled both diesel and petrol vehicles to meet strict emissions standards.
