Understanding Fuel Efficiency

Fuel economy is measured differently around the world, making it challenging to compare vehicle efficiency across regions. Our Fuel Economy Calculator converts between the most common measurement systems, helping you understand and compare fuel efficiency regardless of where you are or what units you're familiar with.

Whether you're comparing vehicles, planning a road trip, or trying to understand fuel efficiency in different measurement systems, our tool provides accurate conversions between MPG (miles per gallon), L/100km (liters per 100 kilometers), and km/L (kilometers per liter).

How It Works

Our Fuel Economy Calculator uses precise conversion formulas to translate between different fuel efficiency units. Simply enter a value in any supported unit (MPG, L/100km, or km/L), and the tool instantly converts it to all other units. This makes it easy to compare vehicles or understand fuel efficiency regardless of the measurement system used.

Common Questions

How do I use this tool?

Simply visit our fuel economy page and follow the intuitive interface. Enter a fuel economy value in any supported unit (MPG, L/100km, or km/L), and the tool will instantly convert it to all other units. No registration required - just click and use!

Is this tool free to use?

Yes, all our tools are completely free with no usage limits or registration required. You can convert fuel economy values as many times as you need without any restrictions.

What's the difference between MPG and L/100km?

MPG (miles per gallon) measures how many miles you can travel on one gallon of fuel - higher is better. L/100km (liters per 100 kilometers) measures how many liters you need for 100 kilometers - lower is better. They're inverse measurements of the same concept.

Which countries use which measurement system?

The United States uses MPG. Most other countries use L/100km, including Canada, Australia, and European countries. Some countries like Japan use km/L. Our tool converts between all these systems for easy comparison.
