How much is the expense of driving from Thanet to Penarth?

The expense of driving from Thanet to Penarth, using petrol as the fuel source, amounts to £39.8. This calculation derives from considering the petrol price as 143 pence per liter and the car's fuel efficiency at 37.5 miles per gallon. When carpooling with two passengers, the cost of the trip per passenger is halved to £19.9 (£39.8 divided by 2). With three passengers, the expense drops to approximately £13.27 per passenger (£39.8 divided by 3), and with four passengers, it's reduced further to £9.95 per passenger (£39.8 divided by 4).

To delve into the details of the calculations, the fuel cost computation is reliant on the distance traveled and the car's fuel consumption rate. For the journey from Thanet to Penarth, approximately 27.9 liters of fuel would be required. This amount is determined by dividing the distance of 229.83 miles by the car's fuel consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon, and then converting from gallons to liters using the conversion factor of 4.54609 liters per gallon.

Multiplying the fuel needed by the petrol price per liter results in the total fuel cost of £39.8 for the trip. This breakdown illustrates the impact of various factors, such as fuel price and consumption rate, on the overall cost of the journey, providing insights for individuals planning similar trips and requiring budget estimates.
 

 

Car consumption depends on several factors, like the following:

  1. Engine Optimization: Maintaining the engine's optimal performance through regular maintenance and tune-ups ensures efficient fuel combustion and minimizes fuel wastage.

  2. Aerodynamic Design: Designing vehicles with aerodynamic principles in mind reduces drag and improves fuel efficiency by minimizing air resistance, especially at higher speeds.

  3. Speed Management: Controlling vehicle speed within efficient ranges optimizes fuel consumption by reducing energy losses due to aerodynamic drag and friction.

  4. Environmental Adaptation: Considering driving conditions and environments, such as terrain and weather, allows for the adaptation of driving strategies to minimize fuel consumption under varying circumstances.

  5. Tire Technology: Utilizing advanced tire technology and maintaining proper tire pressure reduces rolling resistance, enhancing vehicle efficiency and fuel economy.
