What does kilometer per gallon (US) measure?

It measures the distance a vehicle travels in kilometers using one US liquid gallon of fuel, reflecting fuel economy.

Why convert kilometer/gallon (US) to meter/liter?

Converting enables comparison of fuel efficiency across different unit systems and provides fine-scale measurements useful in engineering.

Is meter per liter commonly used for all vehicle types?

It's mainly used for small vehicles or detailed engineering work; larger vehicles typically use kilometers per liter or miles per gallon.
