What does meter per US gallon measure?

Meter per US gallon indicates the distance traveled in meters for each US liquid gallon of fuel used, reflecting fuel efficiency in metric distance per US gallon volume.

When should I use gigameter per liter (Gm/L)?

Gm/L is useful for theoretical or educational contexts involving very large distances and very small fuel volumes, such as interplanetary propulsion modeling.

Is gigameter per liter suitable for everyday vehicle fuel efficiency?

No, due to its extremely small conversion factor and scale, Gm/L is not practical for normal vehicle fuel economy measurements.
