How much does it cost to travel from Sheffield to Harrogate by car?

The journey from Sheffield to Harrogate by car comes with a price tag of £8.5 if you're using petrol. Let's break it down. The petrol price we're talking about here is 143 pence per liter, and the car chugs along at 37.5 miles per gallon. Now, if you're thinking about carpooling with a couple of mates, each of you only has to fork out £4.25 for the trip (£8.5 divided by 2). With three buddies on board, it's about £2.83 each (£8.5 divided by 3), and if you've got a full car of four, it's just £2.13 each (£8.5 divided by 4). So, that's the financial aspect of the journey.

Now, let's dive into the nitty-gritty of how we got these figures. The fuel cost calculation is based on how far you're traveling and how thirsty your car is. For this journey, you'd need about 6 liters of fuel. And that's where the £8.5 comes from for the trip from Sheffield to Harrogate.

In summary, the total fuel cost for the journey is £8.5, factoring in the distance, petrol price, and car fuel consumption. Whether you're flying solo or sharing the ride with friends, knowing the breakdown of these costs can help you plan your trip and budget accordingly.
 

Diesel cost from Sheffield to Harrogate.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 5.4 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 2.7 £ (5.4/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 1.8 £ (5.4/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 1.35 £ (5.4/4) /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.
