Example: liters per 10 kilometers to miles per gallon (US)

Starting value Increment Accuracy

To convert liters per 10 kilometers to miles per gallon (US), divide 23.521458 by the input value.

1 L/10 km = 23.521458 mpg (US)

Example: 1 Liters per 10 kilometers = 23.521458 Miles per gallon (US)

US and UK mpg use different gallons: the imperial gallon (4.546 L) is 20% larger than the US gallon (3.785 L). The same car therefore scores about 20% higher in UK figures, 40 mpg UK ≈ 33 mpg US. Check which gallon a source means.
Mpg is inverted relative to consumption, so improvements are not linear: going from 10 to 20 mpg halves fuel use, while 40 to 50 mpg cuts it by only a fifth. Convert to l/100 km when comparing savings, that scale is proportional to actual fuel burned.
Between the Scandinavian liters-per-mil and liters per 100 km lies a factor of 10: 0.8 l/mil is 8 l/100 km. Swedish car ads often quote l/mil while EU specs use l/100 km. Move the decimal point one step, not two.
