What's the cost of a drive from Oxford to Rochdale?

The journey, powered by petrol, sets you back £30.6. In this calculation, we're crunching numbers based on a petrol price of 143 pence per liter and a car's thirst of 37.5 miles per gallon. If you're carpooling with a buddy, that's £15.3 each (£30.6 divided by 2). With a trio onboard, it drops to around £10.2 a head (£30.6 divided by 3), and with a full car of four, it's a mere £7.65 per person (£30.6 divided by 4).

Let's dig into the math behind it. The fuel expenditure hinges on the distance covered and the car's efficiency. For this particular jaunt, you're looking at guzzling down roughly 21.4 liters of fuel. Crunching the numbers, that's where the £30.6 total comes from for the trip from Oxford to Rochdale.
 

 

Some factors that can impact how much petrol your car consumes, are:

  1. Tire Pressure: Believe it or not, keeping your tires properly inflated can make a big difference. Under-inflated tires create more resistance and require more fuel to keep your car rolling smoothly.

  2. Speed: Zooming along at high speeds might be fun, but it's also a surefire way to guzzle petrol. Slowing down a bit can save you some serious cash at the pump.

  3. Engine Condition: A well-maintained engine runs more efficiently, so make sure you're keeping up with those regular tune-ups and oil changes to keep your petrol usage in check.

  4. Aerodynamics: The shape of your car can affect how much wind resistance it encounters, which in turn affects fuel consumption. Sporty cars with sleek designs might look cool, but they often have higher drag and use more petrol.

  5. Driving Environment: Whether you're cruising on flat highways or tackling hilly terrain, your driving environment can impact fuel consumption. Plus, driving in extreme weather conditions like heavy rain or snow can also affect how much petrol you use.
