Approx how much petrol<litres> would be used to drive at a steady speed for 3hrs?

Question

just thinking about picking up an item on ebay,wandered how much would cost to drive there

Answer 1

Depends on ur car

Answer 2

The optimum fuel consumption would be 10 miles per litre, but this would require the most economical technique. In three hours at an average of 40 mph , with no major traffic problems , you would travel 120 miles , so you would use at least 12 litres . This would be difficult to achieve , given the temptations to put pedal to metal.

Answer 3

so many variables what car you have how fast you are going hills traffic no one can give an accurate answer to your question.

Answer 4

Depends on the engine size and your speed. Most cars are at their most economical at about 60mph. I have a Honda  Jazz  1.2 and got 63mpg out of it by keeping my speed down to about 60 mph on the motorway. i do not recommend it . most lorries seem to do about 75 mph

Answer 5

3 hrs of driving would cost approx 30-50 pounds

Answer 6

Surely it depends on what speed?

Answer 7

depends on the car

Answer 8

You need to give  Steven Hawking a buzz and ask him.

Answer 9

If you did the entire journey at 70mph, that&#039;s 210 miles.

If your car averages 40mpg at that speed, that&#039;s 5.25 gallons.

If you&#039;re paying £4.75 per gallon, that&#039;s £25.  If you are travelling slower than 70mph, you will use less fuel.

If it costs you £30-£50 to travel 210 miles, you are either driving a Ferrari or a Rolls Royce, or you have a fuel leak.
