How much is the expense of driving from Plymouth to Brighton?

The expense of driving from Plymouth to Brighton using petrol amounts to £37.3. This computation is based on a petrol price of 143 pence per liter and a car's fuel efficiency of 37.5 miles per gallon. For those considering carpooling arrangements, the cost per passenger decreases with more occupants. With two passengers, the cost per person is £18.65 (£37.3 divided by 2). With three passengers, it's approximately £12.43 per person (£37.3 divided by 3), and with four passengers, it's £9.33 per person (£37.3 divided by 4).

To delve deeper into the calculations, we can explore the fuel cost calculation. This is determined by the distance traveled and the car's fuel consumption rate. For this journey, approximately 26.1 liters of fuel would be required. Multiplying this by the petrol price per liter results in the total fuel cost of £37.3 for the trip from Plymouth to Brighton.
 

 

Several factors can influence the cost of fuel when driving a car:

  1. Fuel Prices: The cost of fuel itself is a primary determinant of fuel expenses. Fluctuations in global oil prices, local taxes, and market demand can all influence fuel prices.

  2. Fuel Efficiency: The fuel efficiency of the vehicle plays a crucial role in determining fuel costs. Cars with higher fuel efficiency will consume less fuel per mile or kilometer traveled, resulting in lower fuel expenses.

  3. Driving Habits: Personal driving habits, such as aggressive acceleration, speeding, and frequent braking, can significantly impact fuel consumption. Adopting smooth driving practices and maintaining a steady speed can help improve fuel efficiency and reduce costs.

  4. Vehicle Maintenance: Proper maintenance of the vehicle, including regular oil changes, tire rotations, and engine tune-ups, is essential for optimal fuel efficiency. Neglecting maintenance can lead to decreased fuel efficiency and increased fuel costs.

  5. Route Selection: The route taken during driving can affect fuel expenses. Opting for routes with lower speed limits, less traffic congestion, and fewer stops can help improve fuel efficiency and reduce costs compared to congested city routes.

  6. Vehicle Weight: Carrying excess weight in the vehicle, such as unnecessary cargo or roof racks, can increase fuel consumption. Removing unnecessary weight can improve fuel efficiency and lower fuel costs.
