Meter/gallon (Uk)
The meter per gallon (UK) is a unit of fuel consumption measurement representing the distance in meters traveled per UK gallon of fuel used.
History/Origin
The unit originated from the need to measure fuel efficiency in the UK, where fuel consumption was traditionally expressed in miles per gallon. The metric equivalent, meters per gallon, was introduced to facilitate international comparisons and scientific calculations.
Current Use
Meter per gallon (UK) is used primarily in technical contexts and scientific studies to quantify fuel efficiency, especially when converting or comparing with other units of fuel consumption in the UK and internationally.
Liter/100 Km
Liter per 100 kilometers (L/100 km) is a measurement of fuel consumption indicating the amount of fuel (in liters) used to travel 100 kilometers.
History/Origin
The L/100 km unit became widely adopted in Europe and other regions as a standard measure of vehicle fuel efficiency, replacing older units like miles per gallon, to provide a clear and consistent metric for consumers and manufacturers.
Current Use
L/100 km is commonly used in vehicle fuel efficiency ratings, especially in European and international markets, to help consumers compare the fuel consumption of different vehicles.
