How much is the expense of driving from Portsmouth to Hull?

The expense of driving from Portsmouth to Hull, using petrol as the fuel source, amounts to £44.9. This calculation derives from considering the petrol price as 144 pence per liter and the car's fuel efficiency at 37.5 miles per gallon. When carpooling with two passengers, the cost of the trip per passenger is halved to £22.45 (£44.9 divided by 2). With three passengers, the expense drops to approximately £14.97 per passenger (£44.9 divided by 3), and with four passengers, it's reduced further to £11.23 per passenger (£44.9 divided by 4).

To delve into the details of the calculations, the fuel cost computation is reliant on the distance traveled and the car's fuel consumption rate. For the journey from Portsmouth to Hull, approximately 31.2 liters of fuel would be required. This amount is determined by dividing the distance of 257.31 miles by the car's fuel consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon, and then converting from gallons to liters using the conversion factor of 4.54609 liters per gallon.

Multiplying the fuel needed by the petrol price per liter results in the total fuel cost of £44.9 for the trip. This breakdown illustrates the impact of various factors, such as fuel price and consumption rate, on the overall cost of the journey, providing insights for individuals planning similar trips and requiring budget estimates.
 

Diesel cost from Portsmouth to Hull.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 31.2 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 15.6 £ (31.2/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 10.4 £ (31.2/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 7.8 £ (31.2/4) /p.

One key factor contributing to diesel cars generally having lower fuel consumption than petrol cars is their higher thermal efficiency. Diesel engines typically operate at higher compression ratios than petrol engines, allowing them to extract more energy from each unit of fuel. This increased efficiency means diesel vehicles can travel farther on the same amount of fuel compared to petrol vehicles, resulting in lower fuel consumption overall.
