What is a typical fuel consumption rate?

Small cars: 5–7 L/100km. Medium cars: 7–10 L/100km. Large SUVs: 10–15 L/100km. Hybrid vehicles: 3–5 L/100km. Electric vehicles: 0 fuel cost.

How do I find my car's fuel consumption?

Check your car's owner's manual, the fuel economy label (sticker in window), or your onboard trip computer. Real-world consumption is often 10–15% higher than official ratings.

How do I convert MPG to L/100km?

L/100km = 282.5 ÷ MPG (US). For example, 35 MPG = 282.5 / 35 ≈ 8.07 L/100km.

Frequently Asked Questions

Fuel Cost = (Distance ÷ 100) × Fuel Consumption (L/100km) × Fuel Price per Litre. For example, 500 km at 8 L/100km with fuel at $1.80/L = 500/100 × 8 × 1.80 = $72.
