How much does it cost to travel from Swindon to Maldon by car?

The journey, fueled by petrol, comes to £23.9. In this calculation, we've assumed a petrol price of 144 pence per liter and the car's petrol consumption at 37.5 miles per gallon.

For those considering carpooling, with two passengers, the cost per person is £11.95 (£23.9/2). With three passengers, the cost reduces to £7.97 per person (£23.9/3). And for four passengers, it further decreases to £5.98 per person (£23.9/4).

To break it down further, here's how we arrive at the result:

The fuel required is determined by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption. For a journey of 137.08 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 137.08 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 16.6 liters of fuel needed.

The fuel cost is then calculated by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. For 16.6 liters of fuel at 144 pence per liter, the total comes to £23.9.

In conclusion, the fuel cost from Swindon to Maldon amounts to £23.9.


Diesel cost from Swindon to Maldon.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 16.6 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 8.3 £ (16.6/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 5.53 £ (16.6/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 4.15 £ (16.6/4) /p.

In general, diesel engines tend to have lower fuel consumption compared to petrol engines, all else being equal. 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 than petrol, and diesel engines are typically more efficient at converting that energy into mechanical work.

Additionally, diesel engines operate at higher compression ratios, which improves their thermal efficiency and allows them to extract more energy from each unit of fuel. As a result, diesel vehicles often achieve better fuel economy and can travel farther on a gallon or liter of fuel compared to petrol vehicles of similar size and performance.

Ultimately, the choice between diesel and petrol vehicles depends on various factors, including fuel economy preferences, driving patterns, environmental considerations, and local fuel prices and availability.
