Liters per 100 km to miles per US gallon
Type a value in L/100 km to get it in mpg (US) instantly.
That's 1.11× as economical as a heavy truck, while a large SUV is 2.6× better. On a 50-liter tank, that is about 166.7 km of range.
Convert the other way: mpg (US) to L/100 km
What it means
How far on one tank?
Range assumes a 50-liter tank. US and UK gallons differ, so always check which mpg a figure means.
The math
How to convert L/100 km to mpg (US)
These units run in opposite directions, so the conversion divides instead of multiplying: L/100 km = 235.215 ÷ mpg (US), and km/L = 100 ÷ L/100 km.
Example: 30 L/100 km = 7.84049 mpg (US).
