Meter/liter
The meter per liter (m/L) is a unit used to measure fuel efficiency, indicating the distance traveled in meters per liter of fuel consumed.
History/Origin
The m/L unit has been used historically in certain regions to express fuel efficiency, especially in contexts where metric units are standard. It is less common today, having been largely replaced by kilometers per liter (km/L) or miles per gallon (mpg).
Current Use
Currently, the meter per liter is rarely used in practical applications; it may appear in specialized scientific or engineering contexts but is generally superseded by more conventional fuel efficiency units in everyday use.
Kilometer/liter
Kilometer per liter (km/L) is a unit of fuel efficiency indicating the distance in kilometers traveled per liter of fuel consumed.
History/Origin
The km/L unit has been widely used in countries like India and Australia to measure vehicle fuel efficiency, especially in the context of consumer vehicles. Its usage became prominent with the adoption of metric units in the 20th century.
Current Use
Today, km/L remains a common metric for measuring fuel efficiency in many countries, particularly in vehicle specifications, fuel economy ratings, and environmental assessments within the 'Fuel Consumption' converter category under 'Common Converters'.
