How much does it cost to travel from Newcastle upon Tyne to Dunfermline by car?

The journey from Newcastle upon Tyne to Dunfermline by car comes with a price tag of £24.7 if you're using petrol. Let's break it down. The petrol price we're talking about here is 143 pence per liter, and the car chugs along at 37.5 miles per gallon. Now, if you're thinking about carpooling with a couple of mates, each of you only has to fork out £12.35 for the trip (£24.7 divided by 2). With three buddies on board, it's about £8.23 each (£24.7 divided by 3), and if you've got a full car of four, it's just £6.18 each (£24.7 divided by 4). So, that's the financial aspect of the journey.

Now, let's dive into the nitty-gritty of how we got these figures. The fuel cost calculation is based on how far you're traveling and how thirsty your car is. For this journey, you'd need about 17.3 liters of fuel. And that's where the £24.7 comes from for the trip from Newcastle upon Tyne to Dunfermline.

In summary, the total fuel cost for the journey is £24.7, factoring in the distance, petrol price, and car fuel consumption. Whether you're flying solo or sharing the ride with friends, knowing the breakdown of these costs can help you plan your trip and budget accordingly.
 

Diesel cost from Newcastle upon Tyne to Dunfermline.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 15.6 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 7.8 £ (15.6/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 5.2 £ (15.6/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 3.9 £ (15.6/4) /p.

For these reasons, diesel cars use less fuel than petrol cars:

Diesel fuel has more energy per litre than petrol. Diesel engines can drive farther and provide more power for the same fuel volume, reducing fuel consumption.

Diesel engines have higher compression ratios than petrol engines, increasing thermal efficiency. Diesel engines get more energy from each fuel unit due to this increased compression ratio. Because diesel engines are thermally efficient, they use less fuel.

Diesel engines create more torque at lower RPM than petrol engines. Diesel vehicles require less throttle input to maintain speed, which improves fuel efficiency, especially during steady-state driving.

Diesel cars consume less fuel than petrol cars due to these considerations.
