Meter/pint (Us)
The meter per pint (US) is a unit of fuel consumption measuring the distance traveled in meters per US pint of fuel used.
History/Origin
The unit originated from the need to quantify fuel efficiency in terms of distance per volume, combining the metric meter with the US customary pint, primarily used in the United States for automotive and fuel consumption measurements.
Current Use
It is occasionally used in specialized contexts to express fuel efficiency, especially in regions or industries that utilize both metric and US customary units, but it is not a standard or widely adopted measurement in fuel consumption reporting.
Hectometer/liter
A hectometer per liter (hm/L) is a unit of fuel consumption measurement representing the number of hectometers traveled per liter of fuel used.
History/Origin
The hectometer, as a metric unit of length, was introduced with the metric system in the 19th century. The combination with liters for fuel consumption is a less common, regional unit used primarily in some European contexts, but it has not been widely adopted internationally.
Current Use
The hm/L unit is rarely used in modern contexts; it may appear in specific regional or historical data related to fuel efficiency, but most countries now prefer units like liters per 100 kilometers (L/100km) or miles per gallon (mpg).
