Meter/quart (Us)
The meter/quart (US) is a unit of fuel consumption measurement representing the distance traveled per quart of fuel used, primarily in the United States.
History/Origin
The meter/quart (US) originated as a custom unit in the US to express fuel efficiency, combining the metric distance unit 'meter' with the US customary volume unit 'quart'. It is not an officially recognized standard but is used informally in some contexts.
Current Use
Today, the meter/quart (US) is rarely used; fuel consumption is more commonly expressed in miles per gallon (mpg) or liters per 100 kilometers. The unit may still appear in niche applications or historical data related to US fuel efficiency measurements.
Kilometer/liter
Kilometer per liter (km/L) is a unit of fuel efficiency indicating the distance in kilometers traveled per liter of fuel consumed.
History/Origin
The km/L unit has been widely used in countries like India and Australia to measure vehicle fuel efficiency, especially in the context of consumer vehicles. Its usage became prominent with the adoption of metric units in the 20th century.
Current Use
Today, km/L remains a common metric for measuring fuel efficiency in many countries, particularly in vehicle specifications, fuel economy ratings, and environmental assessments within the 'Fuel Consumption' converter category under 'Common Converters'.
