How much does it cost to drive from Redditch to Southend-on-Sea with petrol?

Let's delve into the expenses of a road trip from Redditch to Southend-on-Sea. The journey using petrol will set you back 27.2 pounds. Now, let's walk through how we arrived at this figure.

Firstly, we consider the price of petrol, which is 143 pence per liter. Next, we take into account the car's fuel consumption rate, which stands at 37.5 miles per gallon.

Now, suppose you're carpooling. If there are two passengers sharing the ride, each person will contribute 13.6 pounds (£27.2 divided by 2). With three passengers, the cost per person drops to around 9.07 pounds (£27.2 divided by 3). And if there are four passengers onboard, each person chips in 6.8 pounds (£27.2 divided by 4).

Let's delve deeper into the calculations. To determine how much fuel is needed for the trip, we rely on the distance and the car's fuel efficiency. The distance between Redditch and Southend-on-Sea is approximately 156.88 miles. So, to cover this distance, the car will require roughly 19 liters of petrol. We obtained this value by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon and then converting it to liters.

Once we have the amount of fuel needed, we calculate the total cost. Multiplying the fuel quantity (19 liters) by the price per liter (143 pence) yields 27.2 pounds. Therefore, the fuel cost for the journey from Redditch to Southend-on-Sea is 27.2 pounds.
 

 

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.
