Meter/gallon (Us)
The meter per gallon (US) is a unit of fuel consumption measurement indicating the distance in meters traveled per US gallon of fuel used.
History/Origin
The unit originated from the need to measure fuel efficiency in different measurement systems, particularly in the United States, combining the metric unit of distance (meter) with the US customary volume unit (gallon). It is used mainly in contexts where metric and imperial units are compared or converted.
Current Use
The meter per gallon (US) is primarily used in fuel efficiency and consumption calculations, especially in regions or industries where metric units are preferred but US gallons are still relevant, such as automotive and environmental assessments.
Mile (Us)/liter
The mile per liter (mi/L) is a unit of fuel consumption measurement indicating how many miles a vehicle can travel on one liter of fuel.
History/Origin
The mile per liter has been used primarily in countries like the UK and Australia to measure fuel efficiency, especially where the imperial system is prevalent. It is less common in the US, where miles per gallon are more standard.
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.
