Fuel for the journey in the form of petrol costs 84.1 pounds. The gasoline price is assumed to be 144 pence per litre in the calculation above, and the vehicle's fuel consumption is 37.5 miles per gallon.
The expense for two individuals participating in a carpool is £42.05 (equivalent to 84.1/2) per passenger.
The fare for this journey for three individuals in the vehicle is 28.03 pounds (84.1/3) per passenger.
21.03 pounds (84.1/4) per passenger is the expense of this journey for a car carrying four passengers.


(481.72 miles at 37.5 mpg) x 144 pence per litre for fuel equals 84.1 pounds.

To be more precise, the outcome is as follows:

Fuel Required = Distance / Vehicle Fuel Consumption (in miles multiplied by 4.54609 per vehicle)58.4 litres are consumed (481.72 miles * 4.54609 / 37.5 mpg).

Required fuel = 58.4 lt

Fuel expenses are calculated as follows: 58.4 litres x 144 pence per litre, or 84.1 pounds

Diesel cost from Plymouth to Airdrie.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 58.3 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 29.15 £ (58.3/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 19.43 £ (58.3/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 14.58 £ (58.3/4) /p.

Significant factors contributing to diesel cars generally having lower fuel consumption than petrol cars are:

  1. Higher Thermal Efficiency: Diesel engines typically operate at higher compression ratios than petrol engines. This higher compression ratio allows diesel engines to extract more energy from each unit of fuel, resulting in greater thermal efficiency. As a result, diesel vehicles can achieve better fuel economy compared to petrol vehicles.

  2. More Torque at Lower RPM: Diesel engines tend to produce more torque at lower engine speeds (RPM) compared to petrol engines. This characteristic enables diesel vehicles to perform more efficiently during steady-state driving conditions, requiring less throttle input to maintain speed. Consequently, diesel cars often exhibit lower fuel consumption, especially in highway driving scenarios.
