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

The journey, fueled by petrol, comes to £9.1. 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 £4.55 (£9.1/2). With three passengers, the cost reduces to £3.03 per person (£9.1/3). And for four passengers, it further decreases to £2.28 per person (£9.1/4).

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 52.13 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 52.13 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 6.3 liters of fuel needed.

The fuel cost is then calculated by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. For 6.3 liters of fuel at 144 pence per liter, the total comes to £9.1.

In conclusion, the fuel cost from Rugby to Oxford amounts to £9.1.

Diesel cost from Rugby to Oxford.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 6.3 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 3.15 £ (6.3/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 2.1 £ (6.3/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 1.58 £ (6.3/4) /p.

Diesel cars generally have lower fuel consumption compared to petrol cars for the following reasons:

  1. Higher Energy Density of Diesel Fuel: Diesel fuel contains more energy per liter compared to petrol. This means that for the same volume of fuel, diesel engines can generate more power and travel a greater distance, resulting in lower fuel consumption.

  2. Increased Thermal Efficiency of Diesel Engines: Diesel engines operate at higher compression ratios compared to petrol engines. This higher compression ratio allows diesel engines to extract more energy from each unit of fuel. As a result, diesel engines are typically more thermally efficient, translating into lower fuel consumption.

  3. Greater Torque at Lower RPM: Diesel engines tend to produce more torque at lower engine speeds (RPM) compared to petrol engines. This characteristic allows diesel vehicles to maintain better fuel efficiency, particularly during steady-state cruising, as they require less throttle input to maintain speed.

These factors combined contribute to the generally lower fuel consumption observed in diesel cars compared to their petrol counterparts.
