Meter/pint (Us)
The meter per pint (US) is a unit of fuel consumption measuring the distance traveled in meters per US pint of fuel used.
History/Origin
The unit originated from the need to quantify fuel efficiency in terms of distance per volume, combining the metric meter with the US customary pint, primarily used in the United States for automotive and fuel consumption measurements.
Current Use
It is occasionally used in specialized contexts to express fuel efficiency, especially in regions or industries that utilize both metric and US customary units, but it is not a standard or widely adopted measurement in fuel consumption reporting.
Liter/100 Km
Liter per 100 kilometers (L/100 km) is a measurement of fuel consumption indicating the amount of fuel (in liters) used to travel 100 kilometers.
History/Origin
The L/100 km unit became widely adopted in Europe and other regions as a standard measure of vehicle fuel efficiency, replacing older units like miles per gallon, to provide a clear and consistent metric for consumers and manufacturers.
Current Use
L/100 km is commonly used in vehicle fuel efficiency ratings, especially in European and international markets, to help consumers compare the fuel consumption of different vehicles.
