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 £5.85 for the trip (£11.7 divided by 2).

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 8.2 liters of fuel. And that's where the £11.7 comes from for the trip from Swindon to South Somerset.

Diesel cost from Swindon to South Somerset.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 7.4 £ (151p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 3.7 £ (7.4/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 2.47 £ (7.4/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 1.85 £ (7.4/4) /p.

Diesel engines consume less fuel than petrol engines, all else being equal. Diesel fuel's higher energy density and diesel engines' superior thermal efficiency are the main reasons. Diesel fuel has more energy per litre than petrol, and diesel engines utilise that energy more efficiently.

Higher compression ratios improve thermal efficiency and allow diesel engines to extract more energy from each fuel unit. Diesel vehicles get better fuel efficiency and travel farther per gallon or litre than petrol vehicles of equal size and performance.

The choice between diesel and petrol automobiles depends on fuel economy, driving patterns, environmental concerns, and local fuel prices and availability.
