How much does it cost to travel from Rugby to Bristol by car?

The journey, fueled by petrol, comes to £17.8. In this calculation, we've assumed a petrol price of 144 pence per liter and the car's petrol consumption at 37.5 miles per gallon.

For those considering carpooling, with two passengers, the cost per person is £8.9 (£17.8/2). With three passengers, the cost reduces to £5.93 per person (£17.8/3). And for four passengers, it further decreases to £4.45 per person (£17.8/4).

To break it down further, here's how we arrive at the result:

The fuel required is determined by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption. For a journey of 102.07 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 102.07 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 12.4 liters of fuel needed.

The fuel cost is then calculated by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. For 12.4 liters of fuel at 144 pence per liter, the total comes to £17.8.

In conclusion, the fuel cost from Rugby to Bristol amounts to £17.8.

Diesel cost from Rugby to Bristol.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 12.4 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 6.2 £ (12.4/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 4.13 £ (12.4/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 3.1 £ (12.4/4) /p.

When comparing diesel fuel and petrol (gasoline) fuel in terms of octane rating, there's a significant distinction:

  1. Petrol:

    • Petrol typically has an octane rating ranging from 87 to 95 in most markets.

    • Octane rating measures the fuel's resistance to premature detonation or knocking in spark-ignition engines.

    • Higher octane ratings are crucial for high-performance petrol engines with higher compression ratios or turbocharging, as they help prevent engine knocking and allow for more efficient combustion.

  2. Diesel Fuel:

    • Diesel fuel doesn't have an octane rating in the same sense as petrol because it's not used in spark-ignition engines.

    • Diesel engines rely on compression ignition rather than spark ignition, meaning the fuel-air mixture ignites spontaneously due to high pressure and temperature.

    • Therefore, diesel fuel is designed to ignite under the high compression conditions found in diesel engines, and its properties are optimized for this type of combustion rather than for octane rating.

In essence, while petrol relies on octane rating to ensure proper combustion in spark-ignition engines, diesel fuel is formulated to ignite under the high-pressure conditions of compression ignition in diesel engines, rendering octane rating irrelevant for diesel fuel.
