How much does it cost to drive from London to Pontypool?

If you're using petrol, it's gonna set you back 25.1 quid. In this calculation, they're saying the petrol price is 143 pence per liter, and the car's gonna guzzle down 37.5 miles for every gallon of that stuff.

Now, if you're carpooling, the cost gets split up between everyone riding. So, if there are two people in the car, it's gonna be 12.55 quid each (£25.1 divided by 2). With three buddies on board, it works out to around 8.37 quid per person (£25.1 divided by 3). And if you've got a full car with four people, it's only 6.28 quid per person (£25.1 divided by 4).

Breaking down the numbers, the fuel cost is calculated based on how far you're going and how much gas your car chugs. For this trip, you're gonna need about 17.5 liters of fuel. They figured that out by dividing the distance of 144.54 miles by the car's fuel consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon, and then converting that to liters 'cause, you know, the UK uses liters.

So, you take the fuel needed, which is 17.5 liters, and you multiply it by the price per liter, which is 143 pence. And voilà, you got yourself the total fuel cost for the trip from London to Pontypool: 25.1 quid.

 

Diesel cost from London to Pontypool.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 15.8 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 7.9 £ (15.8/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 5.27 £ (15.8/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 3.95 £ (15.8/4) /p.

Diesel fuel and gasoline (petrol) fuel have differences:

  1. Energy Density: Diesel fuel generally has a higher energy density than petrol. This means that diesel fuel contains more energy per liter or gallon compared to petrol, resulting in diesel engines being able to generate more power and travel further distances on the same volume of fuel.

  2. Octane Rating: Petrol typically has a higher octane rating compared to diesel fuel. Octane rating indicates the fuel's resistance to knocking or pre-ignition in spark-ignition engines. Higher octane ratings are required for petrol engines with higher compression ratios or turbocharging, whereas diesel engines rely on compression ignition and do not use spark plugs.
