Kilometer/gallon (Us)
Kilometer per gallon (US) is a unit of fuel efficiency indicating the number of kilometers traveled per US gallon of fuel consumed.
History/Origin
The km/gal unit originated from the need to measure fuel efficiency in countries using the metric system, combined with the US customary gallon, primarily used in the United States for automotive fuel economy ratings.
Current Use
This unit is used in the United States to express vehicle fuel efficiency, especially in contexts where metric distance is preferred but fuel consumption is measured in US gallons.
Meter/gallon (Uk)
The meter per gallon (UK) is a unit of fuel consumption measurement representing the distance in meters traveled per UK gallon of fuel used.
History/Origin
The unit originated from the need to measure fuel efficiency in the UK, where fuel consumption was traditionally expressed in miles per gallon. The metric equivalent, meters per gallon, was introduced to facilitate international comparisons and scientific calculations.
Current Use
Meter per gallon (UK) is used primarily in technical contexts and scientific studies to quantify fuel efficiency, especially when converting or comparing with other units of fuel consumption in the UK and internationally.
