How much does it cost to drive from Southampton to New Forest with petrol?

Let's delve into the expenses of a road trip from Southampton to New Forest. The journey using petrol will set you back 2.2 pounds. Now, let's walk through how we arrived at this figure.

Firstly, we consider the price of petrol, which is 143 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 1.1 pounds (£2.2 divided by 2). With three passengers, the cost per person drops to around 0.73 pounds (£2.2 divided by 3). And if there are four passengers onboard, each person chips in 0.55 pounds (£2.2 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 Southampton and New Forest is approximately 12.55 miles. So, to cover this distance, the car will require roughly 1.5 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 (1.5 liters) by the price per liter (143 pence) yields 2.2 pounds. Therefore, the fuel cost for the journey from Southampton to New Forest is 2.2 pounds.
 

Diesel cost from Southampton to New Forest.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 1.4 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 0.7 £ (1.4/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 0.47 £ (1.4/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 0.35 £ (1.4/4) /p.

Diesel fuel and petrol (gasoline) fuel in terms of fuel efficiency:

  • Diesel Fuel: Diesel engines are generally more fuel-efficient than petrol engines. 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 or per gallon compared to petrol, allowing diesel engines to extract more energy from each unit of fuel. Additionally, diesel engines operate at higher compression ratios, which further improves their thermal efficiency. As a result, diesel vehicles typically achieve better fuel economy and can travel farther on a gallon or liter of fuel compared to petrol vehicles of similar size and performance.

  • Petrol (Gasoline): Petrol engines are generally less fuel-efficient than diesel engines. While petrol is still an efficient fuel for internal combustion engines, it typically has a lower energy density compared to diesel fuel. This means that petrol engines may require more fuel to achieve the same level of performance as diesel engines. However, advancements in petrol engine technology, such as turbocharging and direct injection, have improved fuel efficiency in recent years, narrowing the gap between petrol and diesel vehicles.
