Fuel Economy

Worth Knowing

Fuel economy is where unit systems clash most awkwardly, because the two conventions are mathematical opposites: miles per gallon rewards higher numbers (more distance per fuel), while liters per 100 km rewards lower ones (less fuel per distance). You can't simply scale between them — the conversion is a reciprocal, which is why they can't be compared at a glance. Add the US-versus-imperial gallon gap and cross-border fuel-economy comparisons need genuine care rather than rough mental math.

How to Use

  1. Choose the unit you're converting from and the unit you want, from the two dropdowns above.
  2. Type a value into the input field — the converted result updates instantly.
  3. Swap the two units any time to flip the direction of the conversion.
