How much does a trip from London to Brighton set you back in petrol costs?

The answer: £55.1. In this calculation, we're considering a petrol price of 144 pence per liter and a car's fuel efficiency rated at 37.5 miles per gallon. Carpooling with two passengers reduces the cost per person to £27.55 (£55.1 divided by 2). With three passengers, the expense drops to approximately £18.37 per passenger (£55.1 divided by 3), and with a full car of four, it's just £13.78 per passenger (£55.1 divided by 4).

Now, let's dissect the numbers behind this. The fuel cost is determined by the distance traveled and the car's fuel consumption rate. For this journey, you'll need approximately 38.3 liters of fuel. Crunching the figures, that's where the total of £55.1 comes from for the journey from Musselburgh to Peterborough.
 

Diesel cost from Musselburgh to Peterborough.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 38.2 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 19.1 £ (38.2/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 12.73 £ (38.2/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 9.55 £ (38.2/4) /p.

In general, diesel engines tend to have lower fuel consumption compared to petrol engines, all else being equal. This is primarily due to the higher energy density of diesel fuel and the higher thermal efficiency of diesel engines. Diesel fuel contains more energy per liter than petrol, and diesel engines are typically more efficient at converting that energy into mechanical work.

Additionally, diesel engines operate at higher compression ratios, which improves their thermal efficiency and allows them to extract more energy from each unit of fuel. As a result, diesel vehicles often achieve better fuel economy and can travel farther on a gallon or liter of fuel compared to petrol vehicles of similar size and performance.

Ultimately, the choice between diesel and petrol vehicles depends on various factors, including fuel economy preferences, driving patterns, environmental considerations, and local fuel prices and availability.
