Frequently asked questions
How many kilometers per liter are in one liters per 100 km?
One L/100 km equals 100 km/L (this pair inverts, since one measures distance per volume and the other volume per distance).
How do I convert liters per 100 km to kilometers per liter?
Divide 100 by the liters per 100 km value to get kilometers per liter, and divide 100 by the kilometers per liter value to get back liters per 100 km. This "invert the constant" rule works both ways because one unit is distance-per-volume and the other is volume-per-distance.
Is this conversion exact?
Yes. This conversion uses the exact defined relationship between liters per 100 km and kilometers per liter, so the result shown is mathematically precise (rounded only for display).
When is liters per 100 km to kilometers per liter conversion commonly used?
It is commonly used in automotive fuel efficiency ratings, vehicle comparisons and shopping, as well as EPA, WLTP and other international fuel economy standards.

About this conversion
Liters per 100 km and Kilometers per liter are both units used to measure fuel economy. Liters per 100 kilometers (L/100 km) measures how many liters of fuel a vehicle consumes over 100 kilometers; a lower number means better efficiency. It is the standard fuel consumption unit used across most of Europe and many other regions. Kilometers per liter (km/L) measures how many kilometers a vehicle travels using one liter of fuel; a higher number means better efficiency. It is a common metric fuel economy unit. Liters per 100 km is a distance-per-volume efficiency unit while kilometers per liter is a volume-per-distance consumption unit, so converting between them means inverting the value rather than multiplying by a flat factor: 1 L/100 km = 100 km/L. This relationship stays accurate for automotive fuel efficiency ratings, vehicle comparisons and shopping, as well as EPA, WLTP and other international fuel economy standards.
