When you need a fuel converter: buying a car, renting a car abroad, comparing gasoline and electricity.

When you need a fuel consumption converter

1. Buying an imported car

Japanese car characteristics: 18 km/l. Translation: 100/18 = 5.6 l/100 km. Economical!

2. Rent a car in the USA

It says "32 MPG highway". We translate: 235.215/32 = 7.35 l/100 km. Acceptable consumption.

3. Fuel cost comparison

Car A: 8 l/100 km, Car B: 25 MPG. Who is more economical? 25 MPG = 9.41 l/100 km → Car A is more profitable.

4. Gasoline vs electricity

Gasoline: 8 l/100 km × 55 rub/l = 440 rub/100 km. Electric: 17 kWh/100 km × 6 rubles = 102 rubles/100 km.

5. Planning a long trip

Distance 800 km, consumption 9 l/100 km. Required: 800 × 9 / 100 = 72 liters. With a tank of 60 liters - one refueling.

ProblemTranslation
Japan → Russiakm/l → l/100 km
USA → RussiaUS MPG → l/100 km
UK → RussiaUK MPG → l/100 km
Electric vs petrolkWh/100 km vs l/100 km
