Where you'll actually use this
Fuel economy compares how far a vehicle travels per unit of fuel — or, inversely, how much fuel it uses per unit of distance.
- Buying a car
US listings show MPG (higher is better). Most of the rest of the world shows L/100 km (lower is better).
- Road trips
Estimate fuel cost: distance ÷ economy × price per gallon (or liter).
- Fleet management
Standardize across regions by converting all vehicles to the same metric.
Common mistakes to avoid
- MPG isn't linear
Going from 10 → 20 MPG saves much more fuel than 40 → 50 MPG, even though both jumps are '+10 MPG'.
- US MPG ≠ UK MPG
A UK (imperial) gallon is 20% larger than a US gallon, so UK MPG values are higher for the same vehicle.
Did you know?
L/100 km is directly proportional to fuel cost — twice the number means twice the bill. MPG isn't.
