About Fuel Economy

Fuel economy refers to the relationship between the distance traveled and the amount of fuel consumed by a vehicle. It is typically expressed as distance per unit volume, such as miles per gallon (MPG) or kilometers per liter (km/L).

Different regions use different standard metrics for fuel economy. In the United States, miles per gallon (MPG) is the standard, while in Europe and many other parts of the world, liters per 100 kilometers (L/100km) is common. Converting between these units helps compare vehicles across different standards.
