What's the expense of traveling from Wandsworth to Tunbridge Wells by car?

The trip fueled by petrol comes to £7.6. This calculation is based on a petrol price of 144 pence per liter and the car's consumption rate of 37.5 miles per gallon.

For those interested in carpooling, the cost per passenger decreases with more occupants. With two passengers, each person's share is £3.8 (£7.6/2). For three passengers, the cost per person reduces to £2.53 (£7.6/3), and with four passengers, it further decreases to £1.9 (£7.6/4).

To delve deeper into the calculation, let's examine how we arrive at the result:

Firstly, we determine the fuel required by dividing the distance by the car's fuel consumption rate. For a journey of 43.39 miles, this calculation involves multiplying 43.39 miles by 4.54609 (liters per gallon) and dividing by the car's consumption of 37.5 mpg, resulting in 5.3 liters of fuel needed.

Next, we calculate the fuel cost by multiplying the fuel needed by the price per liter. With 5.3 liters of fuel at 144 pence per liter, the total cost comes to £7.6.

In summary, the fuel cost for the trip from Wandsworth to Tunbridge Wells amounts to £7.6.

Diesel cost from Wandsworth to Tunbridge Wells.

The trip with diesel fuel costs 5.3 £ (167p/lt, 62.7 mpg).

For 3 passengers: 1.77 £ (5.3/3) /p.
For 4 passengers: 1.33 £ (5.3/4) /p.

The main reasons diesel cars use less fuel than petrol cars are:

Diesel engines have higher compression ratios than petrol engines, improving thermal efficiency. Diesel engines extract more energy from each fuel unit due to this increased compression ratio, improving thermal efficiency. Diesel automobiles have superior fuel economy than petrol ones.

Diesel engines create more torque at lower RPM than petrol engines. Diesel vehicles perform better in steady-state driving, requiring less throttle input to maintain speed. Thus, diesel cars have reduced fuel consumption, especially on highways.
