Current Use
Today, miles per liter are used mainly in Australia and the UK for fuel efficiency ratings, though miles per gallon remain more widespread in the US. The unit is part of fuel consumption conversions within the 'Common Converters' category.
Liter/100 Km
Liter per 100 kilometers (L/100 km) is a measurement of fuel consumption indicating the amount of fuel (in liters) used to travel 100 kilometers.
History/Origin
The L/100 km unit became widely adopted in Europe and other regions as a standard measure of vehicle fuel efficiency, replacing older units like miles per gallon, to provide a clear and consistent metric for consumers and manufacturers.
Current Use
L/100 km is commonly used in vehicle fuel efficiency ratings, especially in European and international markets, to help consumers compare the fuel consumption of different vehicles.
