Volume converter

Cubic Meters to Liters (m³ to L)

Type in either box: it converts both ways, accepts sums like 12*3, and shows every other volume unit too.

1 m³ = 1,000 L. To convert cubic meters to liters, multiply the value in cubic meters by 1,000.

How to convert cubic meters to liters

To convert cubic meters (m³) to liters (L), multiply the value in cubic meters by 1,000.

L = m³ × 1,000

Example: 10 m³ = 10,000 L.

You can also type 10 m³ to L into the smart calculator, or mix units: 1 m³ + 1 L.

About the units

Cubic meter (m³)

The SI unit of volume, equal to 1,000 liters.

Liter (L)

One cubic decimeter, or 1,000 milliliters.

Volume is the space a substance occupies. The SI unit is the cubic meter, but the liter (one cubic decimeter) is used far more often. US and imperial units share names but not sizes: a US gallon is 3.785 liters while an imperial gallon is 4.546 liters.
