How much will petrol cost for 170miles?

Question

I am travelling 170 miles on monday.

I drive a small, 1 litre micra (2000) and was wondering about how much it will cost?

I will be mainly on national speedlimit roads and am travelling fairly early in the morning so wont hit too much traffic.

Answer 1

Hello,

(ANS) The question may appear simple but the answer is complex because it is determined by numerous factors:- Its a mathematical question & answer.

a) Assuming your car does 44 MPG (6.4 liters per 100Kilometers).

b) The distance = 170 miles = 273.53 kilometers

c) thats 19.3 liters of petrol per 300 kilomters

d) 19.2 liters of fuel @ a price of £108 per liter of unleaded petrol

TOTAL COST = £20.74

This question depends on many factors.

will you be driving with window open?

what is the cost of petrol at the station you use?

do you use the aircon?

what is the risk of you being stuck at traffic lights etc? causing u to brake alot?
