Unit definitions

What is a liter per 100 km?

Liters per 100 kilometers (L/100km) is the standard fuel-consumption measure across Europe and most of the world. It states how much fuel a vehicle burns to travel 100 km, so a lower number means a more efficient car — the opposite direction to miles-per-gallon.

What is a kilometer per liter?

Kilometers per liter (km/L) is a distance-per-fuel economy measure common in Japan, India, South Korea and much of Asia and Latin America. A higher value means a more efficient vehicle. It is the direct reciprocal of liters-per-100km scaled by 100.

Frequently asked questions

What is the formula to convert liters per 100 km to kilometers per liter?

km/L = 100 ÷ L/100km. For example, 20 L/100km equals 5 km/L.

Why isn't liter per 100 km to kilometer per liter a simple multiplication?

Because one unit measures fuel per distance and the other measures distance per fuel — they are reciprocals. Doubling the liter per 100 km value roughly halves the kilometer per liter value, so the conversion divides rather than multiplies.

Is this liter per 100 km to kilometer per liter converter free?

Yes — the converter is free, works offline once loaded, and computes instantly in your browser without sending your numbers to a server.
