how many litres of petrol will i need to get to nottingham from newcastle in a 1.6 vectra?

Question

i am in a 1.6 8v vectra and traveling fron newcastle to notts in few days just wanted an estimate

Answer 1

Impossible to say really. All cars are a little different in that respect. If the car is brand new or has an engine in excellent condition then it won't use nearly as much as the same model car that has been used a lot or has a worn engine.

Answer 2

If you go down the A1/M1 way assuming you wish to return without refuelling then you will need about 50 litres based on about 7miles to the litre and assuming a fairly steady 70mph.

To allow for variations in traffic delays and a door to door mileage then add 5litres.

Half that if you are not returning the same way.

Answer 3

iis about 170 miles from nottingham to newcastle, assuming your vectra does 30 mpg thats 5.6 gallon which is roughly 36 ltrs

Answer 4

Its about 160 miles so at 30 mpg youll need between 5 and 6 gallons

Answer 5

I have no idea what a vectra is (im in canada) but check out 'fueleconomy.gov'

If your cars there, you should be able to figure out the average mileage per tank

Answer 6

it depends on alot of things and which newcastle your in (upon tyne or under lime ) , work out distance , average fuel consumption divide distance by consumption= mpg then divide by4.55 =ltrs( 4.55equals 1 gallon not 5ltrs)for example300 miles -30mpg=10gallons=45.5ltrs

Answer 7

depends on the route you take and time of journey and how you drive(ie. harsh accelerating and braking will cause wasting fuel)

Answer 8

depends on if you get lost or not
