Unit conversion

Fuel Economy Converter

Convert fuel consumption and economy between L/100 km, US MPG, imperial MPG, and kilometers per liter.

Convert a value

Use a decimal point, not a comma. Scientific notation such as 1e3 is accepted.

Your values are processed in your browser and are not uploaded to ToolPixels. This tool does not save them.

Consumption and economy move in opposite directions

Lower L/100 km means less fuel used per distance. Higher MPG or km/L means more distance per amount of fuel. The conversion is reciprocal, not a fixed multiplier.

US and imperial gallons have different volumes, so the same vehicle has different numerical MPG ratings. Enter a value greater than zero; zero would require an infinite reciprocal result. Ratings do not predict every driving condition.

Example

30 MPG US is approximately 7.84048611111 L/100 km.

Precision and input limits

Results use browser floating-point arithmetic and are rounded to your selected number of significant digits, not decimal places. Small or large results may use scientific notation. This is not an arbitrary-precision calculator.

Enter a positive number from 1e-100 to 1e100. Fuel values must be greater than zero. Swap units exchanges the unit choices without changing your input. Editing an input clears the previous result.
