Mpg ↔ L/100km

About this mpg ↔ L/100km converter

Fuel economy both ways. US mpg and liters per 100 km move inversely — higher mpg is lower L/100km.

L/100km = 235.214583 / mpg (US). mpg = 235.214583 / L/100km. The constant comes from gallons and kilometers unit definitions.

Not a trip cost calculator and not UK imperial mpg (different gallon). Driving style dominates real tanks.

How do you convert US mpg to L/100km?

L/100km = 235.214583 ÷ mpg. That uses the US gallon (3.785411784 L) and the international mile (1.609344 km).

Is this UK mpg?

No. UK gallons are larger. Use the UK/US mpg converter for that pair.

Is this a driving recommendation?

No. It only converts the two fuel-economy units.
