Meter/pint (Us)
The meter per pint (US) is a unit of fuel consumption measuring the distance traveled in meters per US pint of fuel used.
History/Origin
The unit originated from the need to quantify fuel efficiency in terms of distance per volume, combining the metric meter with the US customary pint, primarily used in the United States for automotive and fuel consumption measurements.
Current Use
It is occasionally used in specialized contexts to express fuel efficiency, especially in regions or industries that utilize both metric and US customary units, but it is not a standard or widely adopted measurement in fuel consumption reporting.
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'.
