How much does it cost to travel from Torbay to Arbroath by car?

The journey, fueled by petrol, comes to £95.7. 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 £47.85 (£95.7/2). With three passengers, the cost reduces to £31.9 per person (£95.7/3). And for four passengers, it further decreases to £23.93 per person (£95.7/4).

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 548.25 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 548.25 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 66.5 liters of fuel needed.

The fuel cost is then calculated by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. For 66.5 liters of fuel at 144 pence per liter, the total comes to £95.7.

In conclusion, the fuel cost from Torbay to Arbroath amounts to £95.7.


Diesel cost from Torbay to Arbroath.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 66.4 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).
For 2 passengers: 33.2 £ (66.4/2) /p.
For 3 passengers: 22.13 £ (66.4/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 16.6 £ (66.4/4) /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.
