About Liters per 100 miles and Miles per Gallon (Imperial)

Liters per 100 miles mixes metric fuel volume with mile distances — a hybrid unit appearing in some North American EV and plug-in hybrid comparisons alongside gallons-per-100-miles figures. Miles per imperial gallon uses the larger UK gallon (4.54609 L), so the same car scores about 20% higher than in US mpg. UK car reviews and older Commonwealth figures use it. The two units are related by a formula rather than a fixed factor; a value of 1 Liters per 100 miles corresponds to 454.6091401 Miles per Gallon (Imperial). Liters per 100 miles to Miles per Gallon (Imperial) conversion comes up most often in EV and hybrid consumption comparisons and in mixed-unit fleet reporting, typically when figures need restating for UK car reviews and adverts.

Precision and Rounding: Fuel economy units are reciprocal of each other — consumption (L/100 km) falls as efficiency (mpg, km/L) rises — so conversions are formula-based, not simple factors, and small mpg differences matter more at low values than high ones. One decimal place is standard for window stickers and trip computers.

Conversion factors per NIST Special Publication 811 and the BIPM SI Brochure (9th edition) (reference).
