How much does it cost to drive from Stafford to Sunderland with petrol?

Let's delve into the expenses of a road trip from Stafford to Sunderland. The journey using petrol will set you back 32.6 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 16.3 pounds (£32.6 divided by 2). With three passengers, the cost per person drops to around 10.87 pounds (£32.6 divided by 3). And if there are four passengers onboard, each person chips in 8.15 pounds (£32.6 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 Stafford and Sunderland is approximately 187.81 miles. So, to cover this distance, the car will require roughly 22.8 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 (22.8 liters) by the price per liter (143 pence) yields 32.6 pounds. Therefore, the fuel cost for the journey from Stafford to Sunderland is 32.6 pounds.
 

Diesel cost from Stafford to Sunderland.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 20.6 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 10.3 £ (20.6/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 6.87 £ (20.6/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 5.15 £ (20.6/4) /p.

When compared to petrol engines, diesel engines typically have a lower fuel usage. This is the case even when all other factors remain the same. This is mostly attributable to the higher energy density of diesel fuel as well as the higher thermal efficiency of diesel engines. Diesel engines are often more efficient in converting the energy contained in diesel fuel into mechanical effort than gasoline engines are. Diesel fuel contains more energy per litre than gasoline fuel.

In addition, diesel engines carry out their operations at higher compression ratios, which not only enhances their thermal efficiency but also enables them to extract a greater amount of energy from each individual unit of fuel. As a consequence of this, diesel vehicles typically achieve superior fuel economy and are able to go further on a gallon or litre of fuel when compared to gasoline vehicles of comparable size and performance.

In the end, the decision between diesel and gasoline-powered vehicles is determined by a number of criteria, such as preferences about fuel economy, driving patterns, environmental concerns, as well as the availability and pricing of fuel in the local area.
