What Is This Tool?
This unit converter transforms vehicle fuel consumption values from liter/100 km, a common metric measure, into meter per gallon (UK), which uses Imperial gallons and metric distance measures. It supports applications in automotive labeling, regulatory testing, and fleet management where metric and Imperial units intersect.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Enter the fuel consumption value in liter/100 km
-
Select meter/gallon (UK) as the output unit
-
Click the convert button to see the result
-
Use the converted value for comparison or analysis
Key Features
-
Converts fuel consumption between liter/100 km and meter/gallon (UK)
-
Supports metric and Imperial unit comparison
-
Ideal for automotive, regulatory, and fleet management use
-
Browser-based and easy to use
Examples
-
5 L/100 km converts to 2,273,049.65 meter/gallon (UK)
-
10 L/100 km converts to 4,546,099.29 meter/gallon (UK)
Common Use Cases
-
Comparing vehicle fuel economy figures between metric and Imperial measurements
-
Performing engineering calculations involving metric distances and UK gallons
-
Analyzing fleet data where distances are metric but fuel volume is in Imperial gallons
-
Regulatory compliance and emissions testing with mixed unit systems
Tips & Best Practices
-
Ensure input values are expressed per 100 kilometers to match unit assumptions
-
Verify that fuel volume units correspond to Imperial (UK) gallons
-
Use the converter to facilitate cross-unit comparisons in international contexts
-
Consult vehicle-specific data for accurate fuel consumption under varying conditions
Limitations
-
Conversion is based on standard definitions of liter and Imperial gallon; variations can affect accuracy
-
Applicable only for fuel consumption values given per 100 kilometers
-
Fuel consumption can vary with driving conditions and vehicle type; values represent standardized scenarios
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does liter/100 km measure?
-
Liter/100 km measures the volume of fuel in liters needed to travel 100 kilometers, with lower values indicating better fuel efficiency.
-
What is meter/gallon (UK)?
-
Meter per gallon (UK) expresses the distance in meters traveled for each Imperial (UK) gallon of fuel consumed.
-
Why convert between these units?
-
Converting helps compare fuel economy between metric-based values and those using Imperial gallons, useful for international assessments and engineering calculations.
Key Terminology
-
Liter/100 km [L/100 km]
-
A metric fuel consumption unit indicating liters of fuel used to travel 100 kilometers.
-
Meter/gallon (UK)
-
A fuel economy unit measuring meters traveled per one Imperial (UK) gallon of fuel.
-
Imperial gallon (UK)
-
A volume measure used in the UK, larger than the US gallon, often used for fuel volume.
