For a journey of 188.19 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 188.19 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 22.8 liters of fuel needed.

Next, we calculate the fuel cost by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. With 22.8 liters of fuel at 144 pence per liter, the total cost comes to £32.8.

Diesel fuel vs petrol fuel in terms of energy density:

As a result, diesel engines can achieve better fuel efficiency and typically provide greater mileage per gallon or liter of fuel compared to petrol engines.

  • Petrol (Gasoline): Petrol has a lower energy density compared to diesel fuel. This means that petrol contains less energy per volume than diesel. While petrol engines are still efficient, they tend to have slightly lower fuel efficiency and may offer shorter driving ranges compared to diesel engines due to this difference in energy density.
