About the units
Kilometer per liter (km/L)
A unit of fuel economy.
Liter per 100 km (L/100 km)
Liters of fuel used to drive 100 kilometers. Lower is better.
Fuel economy is either distance per volume (mpg, km/L), where higher is better, or volume per distance (L/100 km), where lower is better. Converting between the two families is an inversion, not a multiplication. US and UK mpg differ because their gallons differ.
Questions and answers
How do I convert kilometers per liter to liters per 100 km?
