What does petameter per liter measure?

Petameter per liter measures distance traveled per unit volume of fuel on an extremely large scale, typically used in theoretical or astronomical contexts.

Why convert from petameter per liter to gallon per 100 miles?

Converting to gallon per 100 miles translates an astronomical-scale efficiency measurement into a practical unit widely used for vehicle fuel consumption in transportation and regulatory settings.

Is petameter per liter used for normal vehicle fuel efficiency?

No, petameter per liter is impractical for ordinary vehicles and is mainly used in theoretical or academic scenarios.
