What does liter/100 km measure in terms of fuel consumption?

Liter/100 km measures the amount of fuel in liters consumed to travel 100 kilometers, with lower values indicating better fuel efficiency.

Why is gallon (UK)/mile considered an inverse fuel economy metric?

Because it expresses the volume of fuel used per mile, larger values indicate higher fuel consumption and poorer fuel efficiency.

Can I use this conversion for regulatory compliance in the UK?

Yes, this conversion supports regulatory and engineering assessments by translating metric fuel consumption into UK imperial units.

What Is This Tool?

This tool converts fuel consumption values measured in liters per 100 kilometers (L/100 km), a common metric unit for fuel economy, into gallons (UK) per mile, an imperial unit primarily used in the UK for vehicle fuel consumption measurements. It supports understanding and comparing fuel efficiency across different unit systems.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the fuel consumption value in liters per 100 kilometers.
Select liter/100 km as the input unit and gallon (UK)/mile as the output unit.
Click convert to obtain the equivalent fuel consumption in gallon (UK)/mile.
Use the converted value to analyze fuel efficiency or for regulatory reporting.

Key Features

Converts from liter/100 km to gallon (UK)/mile using exact conversion constants.
Suitable for vehicle fuel-efficiency labels, engineering, and regulatory compliance.
Supports transport logistics and fleet fuel cost estimations within UK-specific frameworks.
Easy to use browser-based unit conversion.
Offers example calculations for clarity.

Examples

5 L/100 km converts to approximately 0.0177 gallon (UK)/mile.
10 L/100 km converts to approximately 0.0354 gallon (UK)/mile.

Common Use Cases

Labeling passenger vehicle fuel economy in metric and imperial units.
Regulatory and laboratory testing for emissions and fuel-efficiency compliance.
Estimating and planning fleet fuel budgeting and costs in UK contexts.
Transport logistics and route fuel consumption comparisons involving imperial units.
Converting data to support UK-based vehicle fleet assessments and reports.

Tips & Best Practices

Always verify units before performing conversions to ensure accuracy.
Use this tool to translate metric fuel consumption metrics into UK imperial standards.
Consider variations in driving conditions and vehicle load when applying fuel consumption data.
Combine converted values with real-world data for informed fleet management and planning.

Limitations

The conversion involves imperial units and exact constants; rounding may influence precision.
Fuel consumption values represent averages and can vary due to driving conditions or vehicle load.
This tool does not account for variations beyond the unit conversion itself.
