Meter/quart (Us)
The meter/quart (US) is a unit of fuel consumption measurement representing the distance traveled per quart of fuel used, primarily in the United States.
History/Origin
The meter/quart (US) originated as a custom unit in the US to express fuel efficiency, combining the metric distance unit 'meter' with the US customary volume unit 'quart'. It is not an officially recognized standard but is used informally in some contexts.
Current Use
Today, the meter/quart (US) is rarely used; fuel consumption is more commonly expressed in miles per gallon (mpg) or liters per 100 kilometers. The unit may still appear in niche applications or historical data related to US fuel efficiency measurements.
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.
