What is a kilometer per liter?
Kilometers per liter tell how far a vehicle travels on one liter of fuel, like mpg with metric units. Japan, India and much of Latin America use it. Higher is better: 15 km/L is about 35 US mpg.
What is a liter per 100 kilometers?
Liters per 100 kilometers measure how much fuel a vehicle burns over a fixed distance. Europe, Canada and Australia use it on window stickers. Lower is better, and fuel cost scales directly with it: a car at 5 L/100 km burns half as much as one at 10.
