How much is the expense of driving from Reading to High Peak?

The expense of driving from Reading to High Peak using petrol amounts to £30.4. This computation is based on a petrol price of 144 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 £15.2 (£30.4 divided by 2). With three passengers, it's approximately £10.13 per person (£30.4 divided by 3), and with four passengers, it's £7.6 per person (£30.4 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.

Multiplying this by the petrol price per liter results in the total fuel cost of £30.4 for the trip from Reading to High Peak.
 

Diesel cost from Reading to High Peak.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 21.1 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).

The main reasons diesel cars use less fuel than petrol cars are:

Diesel engines have higher compression ratios than petrol engines, improving thermal efficiency. Diesel engines extract more energy from each fuel unit due to this increased compression ratio, improving thermal efficiency. Diesel automobiles have superior fuel economy than petrol ones.
