The expense for two individuals participating in a carpool is £16.1 (equivalent to 32.2/2) per passenger.
The fare for this journey for three individuals in the vehicle is 10.73 pounds (32.2/3) per passenger.
8.05 pounds (32.2/4) per passenger is the expense of this journey for a car carrying four passengers.


(184.67 miles at 37.5 mpg) x 144 pence per litre for fuel equals 32.2 pounds.

To be more precise, the outcome is as follows:

Fuel Required = Distance / Vehicle Fuel Consumption (in miles multiplied by 4.54609 per vehicle)22.4 litres are consumed (184.67 miles * 4.54609 / 37.5 mpg).

Required fuel = 22.4 lt

32.2 pounds for fuel to get from Pontypridd to High Peak
 


Diesel cost from Pontypridd to High Peak.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 22.4 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 11.2 £ (22.4/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 7.47 £ (22.4/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 5.6 £ (22.4/4) /p.

In general, diesel engines tend to have lower fuel consumption compared to petrol engines, all else being equal. This is primarily due to the higher energy density of diesel fuel and the higher thermal efficiency of diesel engines. Diesel fuel contains more energy per liter than petrol, and diesel engines are typically more efficient at converting that energy into mechanical work.

Additionally, diesel engines operate at higher compression ratios, which improves their thermal efficiency and allows them to extract more energy from each unit of fuel. As a result, diesel vehicles often achieve better fuel economy and can travel farther on a gallon or liter of fuel compared to petrol vehicles of similar size and performance.

Ultimately, the choice between diesel and petrol vehicles depends on various factors, including fuel economy preferences, driving patterns, environmental considerations, and local fuel prices and availability.
