About this conversion

This Koverts page converts liters per 100 km (L/100 km) to UK imperial miles per gallon (MPG UK) — not US MPG — which matters for British car reviews and fuel labels.

Liters per 100 kilometers (L/100 km) expresses how many liters of fuel a vehicle uses to travel 100 km — lower numbers mean better economy in this scale.

UK imperial miles per gallon (MPG UK) uses the larger imperial gallon (~4.546 L). It is still common in UK motoring media and older vehicle documentation.

Typical uses

  • Reading UK car reviews and fuel specs
  • Comparing EU fuel economy labels (L/100 km) with UK MPG figures
  • Fleet and logistics planning across regions
  • Education on reciprocal fuel economy units
FormulaUK = L/100km × 282.481

Common reference values

  • 1 L/100km = 282.481 UK
  • 10 L/100km = 28.2481 UK
  • 100 L/100km = 2.82481 UK

Tip: L/100 km and MPG are reciprocal-style measures — do not multiply by a single factor blindly. Use the calculator above: it applies the same fuel-math as the rest of Koverts.

Did you know? A US gallon is smaller than a UK imperial gallon — so US MPG and UK MPG numbers are not comparable without knowing which gallon is used.

Educational reference - always verify critical measurements (medical, engineering, legal) with primary sources.

// Frequently Asked Questions

Is UK MPG the same as US MPG?▼
No. UK MPG uses the imperial gallon (~4.546 L). US MPG uses the US liquid gallon (~3.785 L). Always check which standard a review uses.
Why is lower L/100 km better but higher MPG better?▼
L/100 km measures fuel per distance (lower is less fuel). MPG measures distance per fuel (higher is farther per gallon). They describe the same efficiency in opposite ways.
What is 1 L/100km in UK?▼
1 L/100km = 282.481 UK.
How is the conversion calculated?▼
UK = L/100km × 282.481.
