What does liter/100 km measure?

It measures the amount of fuel in liters needed to travel 100 kilometers and is commonly used to express vehicle fuel consumption.

How is hectometer/liter useful?

Hectometer per liter expresses fuel economy as the number of 100-meter segments traveled per liter of fuel, offering granular insight especially useful for small vehicles or short-range tests.

Is this conversion suitable for all vehicles?

No, hectometer/liter is most appropriate for small vehicles or short-distance fuel consumption studies rather than general long-distance reporting.

What Is This Tool?

This converter enables quick and precise transformation of fuel consumption values from liter per 100 kilometers, a common metric for vehicle fuel efficiency, into hectometers per liter, which measures how many 100-meter segments a vehicle can travel per liter of fuel.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the fuel consumption value in liter/100 km.
Select the desired conversion to hectometer/liter.
Click convert to receive the corresponding fuel economy expressed in distance per liter.

Key Features

Converts fuel consumption units from liter/100 km to hectometer/liter instantly.
Supports precision suitable for small vehicles and short-range fuel economy analysis.
Browser-based and easy to use with no installation required.
Facilitates detailed comparisons by using a granular distance-per-volume unit.

Examples

5 L/100 km converts to 5000 hm/L.
8 L/100 km converts to 8000 hm/L.

Common Use Cases

Passenger vehicle fuel-economy labels and technical documentation.
Emissions and fuel-efficiency testing in regulatory and laboratory environments.
Fuel budgeting and cost estimations for transportation fleets using short-range measurements.
Fuel-reports for small vehicles and scooters using hectometer increments.

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure clarity when communicating fuel economy results in hectometer/liter due to its relative uncommonness.
Double-check large numerical outputs to avoid errors during conversion.
Use this unit primarily for specialized or localized fuel consumption reports.

Limitations

Hectometer/liter is not widely recognized by general consumers.
Conversion results involve large values by a factor of 1000, which may be prone to mistakes if mishandled.
Not ideal for general or long-distance vehicle fuel economy reporting.
