Mile/gallon (Us)
Mile per gallon (US) is a unit of fuel efficiency representing the number of miles a vehicle can travel on one US gallon of fuel.
History/Origin
The MPG (US) unit has been used in the United States since the early 20th century to measure vehicle fuel efficiency, becoming a standard metric for consumers and manufacturers to compare vehicle performance.
Current Use
Today, MPG (US) remains a common measure of fuel economy for vehicles in the United States, used in vehicle specifications, fuel economy ratings, and environmental assessments within the 'Fuel Consumption' converter under the 'Common Converters' category.
Gigameter/liter
Gigameter per liter (Gm/L) is a unit of fuel consumption measuring the distance traveled in gigameters per liter of fuel used.
History/Origin
The gigameter (Gm) is a metric unit of length equal to one billion meters, introduced as part of the metric system. The use of Gm/L in fuel consumption is uncommon and mainly theoretical, as typical units are km/L or miles per gallon.
Current Use
Gm/L is rarely used in practical applications; it may appear in scientific contexts or large-scale theoretical calculations involving vast distances and fuel efficiency, but it is not a standard unit in everyday fuel consumption measurements.
