What is the financial outlay associated with traveling from Portsmouth to Eastbourne by car?

The journey, powered by petrol, incurs a cost of £12.3. In this computational scenario, the price of petrol is assumed to be 144 pence per liter, and the car's fuel efficiency stands at 37.5 miles per gallon.

For individuals contemplating carpooling arrangements, the expenditure per traveler diminishes as the number of passengers increases. With two passengers, the cost per person amounts to £6.15 (£12.3/2). For a trio of passengers, the cost per person reduces to £4.1 (£12.3/3), and for a quartet of passengers, it further decreases to £3.08 (£12.3/4).

To provide further elucidation on the calculation process, let us dissect how the final figure is derived:

Initially, the requisite fuel quantity is determined by dividing the distance traveled by the car's fuel consumption rate. For a journey spanning 70.22 miles, this computation entails multiplying 70.22 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and subsequently dividing by the car's fuel efficiency of 37.5 mpg, resulting in a requirement of 8.5 liters of fuel.

Subsequently, the fuel expenditure is computed by multiplying the amount of fuel required by the price per liter. Given a consumption of 8.5 liters of fuel at a rate of 144 pence per liter, the cumulative cost equals £12.3.

In summation, the total fuel expenditure for the trip from Portsmouth to Eastbourne stands at £12.3.

 

The condition of the car can significantly impact fuel consumption. Here's how:

  1. Engine Efficiency: A well-maintained engine operates more efficiently, burning fuel more effectively and consuming less. Regular oil changes, air filter replacements, and tune-ups can ensure optimal engine performance.

  2. Fuel System Health: Issues with the fuel system, such as clogged fuel injectors or a faulty oxygen sensor, can lead to improper fuel combustion and increased consumption. Regular maintenance and prompt repairs can help prevent such problems.

  3. Tire Condition: Worn-out or improperly inflated tires increase rolling resistance, requiring more energy (and fuel) to propel the vehicle. Keeping tires properly inflated and replacing worn-out tires can improve fuel efficiency.

  4. Aerodynamics: Damage to the car's body, such as dents or misaligned panels, can disrupt airflow and increase aerodynamic drag, leading to higher fuel consumption. Keeping the car's body in good condition can help maintain optimal aerodynamics.

Diesel cost from Portsmouth to Eastbourne.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 8.5 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 4.25 £ (8.5/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 2.83 £ (8.5/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 2.13 £ (8.5/4) /p.
