How to Transform Liters per 100 Kilometers L/100km into Miles per Gallon (MPG US)

To switch from liters per 100 kilometers (L/100km) to miles per gallon (mpg) in the US system, divide a specific conversion factor by the given fuel consumption value. This factor is precisely 235.2145. The conversion formula can be expressed as follows:

 \text{Miles per gallon (US)} = \frac{235.2145}{\text{Liters per 100 kilometers}}

Thus, the fuel efficiency in miles per gallon (US) is obtained by dividing 235.2145 by the value in liters per 100 kilometers.

Example Calculation:

Let’s calculate the fuel efficiency for a car consuming 5 liters per 100 kilometers:

 5 \ \text{L/100km} = \frac{235.2145}{5} = 47.0429 \ \text{mpg (US)}

This means that a vehicle using 5 liters of fuel to travel 100 kilometers has an efficiency of 47.0429 miles per gallon in the US system.

Units Overview

Liters per 100 Kilometers (L/100km)

This unit measures how many liters of fuel are used to travel 100 kilometers. It is commonly abbreviated as L/100km. For instance, 1 liter per 100 kilometers is written as 1 L/100km. This metric is widely used in countries that follow the metric system to evaluate fuel consumption.

Miles per Gallon (US):

Miles per gallon (US) represents the number of miles a vehicle can travel using one gallon of fuel. A higher mpg value indicates better fuel efficiency, meaning the vehicle consumes less fuel over a given distance. This unit is often abbreviated as mpg (US) or simply mpg.
