Meter/gallon (Us)
The meter per gallon (US) is a unit of fuel consumption measurement indicating the distance in meters traveled per US gallon of fuel used.
History/Origin
The unit originated from the need to measure fuel efficiency in different measurement systems, particularly in the United States, combining the metric unit of distance (meter) with the US customary volume unit (gallon). It is used mainly in contexts where metric and imperial units are compared or converted.
Current Use
The meter per gallon (US) is primarily used in fuel efficiency and consumption calculations, especially in regions or industries where metric units are preferred but US gallons are still relevant, such as automotive and environmental assessments.
Meter/liter
The meter per liter (m/L) is a unit used to measure fuel efficiency, indicating the distance traveled in meters per liter of fuel consumed.
History/Origin
The m/L unit has been used historically in certain regions to express fuel efficiency, especially in contexts where metric units are standard. It is less common today, having been largely replaced by kilometers per liter (km/L) or miles per gallon (mpg).
Current Use
Currently, the meter per liter is rarely used in practical applications; it may appear in specialized scientific or engineering contexts but is generally superseded by more conventional fuel efficiency units in everyday use.
