How much does it cost to drive from Maidstone to Cambridge?

If you're using petrol, it's gonna set you back 14.2 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 7.1 quid each (£14.2 divided by 2). With three buddies on board, it works out to around 4.73 quid per person (£14.2 divided by 3). And if you've got a full car with four people, it's only 3.55 quid per person (£14.2 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 9.9 liters of fuel. They figured that out by dividing the distance of 81.87 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 9.9 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 Maidstone to Cambridge: 14.2 quid.

 

 

The fuel economy is highly sensitive to the state of the vehicle. In this way:

The effectiveness of the engine's fuel combustion and its overall consumption are both improved with regular engine maintenance. Maintaining your engine with routine oil changes, air filter replacements, and tune-ups will keep it running at its best.

Problems with the fuel system, including blocked injectors or a malfunctioning oxygen sensor, can cause petrololine to burn improperly and increase consumption. Preventing such problems requires regular maintenance and rapid repairs.

Problems with tires: When the tires are worn down or not inflated properly, the vehicle has to use more energy (and fuel) to go forward because of the increased rolling resistance. You may enhance your fuel efficiency by changing worn-out tires and keeping them properly inflated.

Aerodynamics: If the body of the vehicle is dented or has panels that aren't flush with the body, airflow will be disrupted and aerodynamic drag will increase, resulting in increased fuel consumption. The best aerodynamic performance is possible with a well-maintained vehicle body.
