What does mile/gallon (US) measure?

It measures fuel economy as the number of miles a vehicle can travel per one US gallon of fuel consumed.

When is megameter per liter [Mm/L] used?

Mm/L is used in scientific and engineering contexts where distances are expressed in megametres and fuel volume in liters.

Can I use megameter per liter units for everyday vehicle comparisons?

These units are generally not intuitive for typical consumer use and are better suited for technical or large-scale analyses.
