What's the expense of traveling from Luton to Lewes by car?

The trip fueled by petrol comes to £17.6. This calculation is based on a petrol price of 144 pence per liter and the car's consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon.

For those interested in carpooling, the cost per passenger decreases with more occupants. With two passengers, each person's share is £8.8 (£17.6/2). For three passengers, the cost per person reduces to £5.87 (£17.6/3), and with four passengers, it further decreases to £4.4 (£17.6/4).

To delve deeper into the calculation, let's examine how we arrive at the result:

Firstly, we determine the fuel required by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption rate. For a journey of 100.66 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 100.66 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 12.2 liters of fuel needed.

Next, we calculate the fuel cost by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. With 12.2 liters of fuel at 144 pence per liter, the total cost comes to £17.6.

In summary, the fuel cost for the trip from Luton to Lewes amounts to £17.6.


Diesel cost from Luton to Lewes.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 12.2 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 6.1 £ (12.2/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 4.07 £ (12.2/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 3.05 £ (12.2/4) /p.

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.
