Description
Fuel efficiency is an essential measure for understanding how far a vehicle or machine can travel or operate using a certain amount of energy. Whether you're calculating how many miles a car can go per gallon of fuel or how much fuel is needed for a 100 km journey, fuel units help us monitor and optimize energy consumption in everything from cars to airplanes, impacting both cost and sustainability.
Common fuel units
Kilometers per liter :Used internationally to measure fuel efficiency, showing how far a vehicle can travel on 1 liter of fuel.
Miles per gallon :Common in the US; measures how many miles a vehicle can travel per gallon of fuel, with 1 mile per gallon roughly equal to 0.425 kilometers per liter.
