How much does it cost to drive from Norwich to Reading?

Well, using petrol, it's £27.1. The petrol price we're talking about here is 143 pence per liter, and the car guzzles up 37.5 miles per gallon. Now, if you're carpooling with two buddies, each of you only chips in £13.55 for the trip (£27.1 divided by 2). With three mates, it's about £9.03 each (£27.1 divided by 3), and if you've got a full car of four, it's only £6.78 each (£27.1 divided by 4). The fuel cost for the journey is calculated based on how far you're driving and how much fuel your car drinks up. So, for this journey, you'd need about 19 liters of fuel. And that's where the £27.1 comes from for the trip from Norwich to Reading.

Diesel cost from Norwich to Reading.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 17.1 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 8.55 £ (17.1/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 5.7 £ (17.1/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 4.28 £ (17.1/4) /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.
