What's the expense of traveling from Sandwell to Weymouth and Portland by car?

The trip fueled by petrol comes to £27.8. This calculation is based on a petrol price of 144 pence per liter and the car's consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon.

For those interested in carpooling, the cost per passenger decreases with more occupants. With two passengers, each person's share is £13.9 (£27.8/2). For three passengers, the cost per person reduces to £9.27 (£27.8/3), and with four passengers, it further decreases to £6.95 (£27.8/4).

To delve deeper into the calculation, let's examine how we arrive at the result:

Firstly, we determine the fuel required by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption rate. For a journey of 159.08 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 159.08 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 19.3 liters of fuel needed.

Next, we calculate the fuel cost by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. With 19.3 liters of fuel at 144 pence per liter, the total cost comes to £27.8.

In summary, the fuel cost for the trip from Sandwell to Weymouth and Portland amounts to £27.8.


Diesel cost from Sandwell to Weymouth and Portland.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 19.3 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 9.65 £ (19.3/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 6.43 £ (19.3/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 4.83 £ (19.3/4) /p.

Diesel engines consume less fuel than petrol engines, all else being equal. Diesel fuel's higher energy density and diesel engines' superior thermal efficiency are the main reasons. Diesel fuel has more energy per litre than petrol, and diesel engines utilise that energy more efficiently.

Higher compression ratios improve thermal efficiency and allow diesel engines to extract more energy from each fuel unit. Diesel vehicles get better fuel efficiency and travel farther per gallon or litre than petrol vehicles of equal size and performance.

The choice between diesel and petrol automobiles depends on fuel economy, driving patterns, environmental concerns, and local fuel prices and availability.
