How much does it cost to drive from Rossendale to Oldham with petrol?

Let's delve into the expenses of a road trip from Rossendale to Oldham. The journey using petrol will set you back 3.8 pounds. Now, let's walk through how we arrived at this figure.

Firstly, we consider the price of petrol, which is 144 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 1.9 pounds (£3.8 divided by 2). With three passengers, the cost per person drops to around 1.27 pounds (£3.8 divided by 3). And if there are four passengers onboard, each person chips in 0.95 pounds (£3.8 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 Rossendale and Oldham is approximately 21.51 miles. So, to cover this distance, the car will require roughly 2.6 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 (2.6 liters) by the price per liter (144 pence) yields 3.8 pounds. Therefore, the fuel cost for the journey from Rossendale to Oldham is 3.8 pounds.
 

Diesel cost from Rossendale to Oldham.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 2.6 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 1.3 £ (2.6/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 0.87 £ (2.6/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 0.65 £ (2.6/4) /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.
