Calculate fuel economy in litres per 100 km from the distance driven and the fuel used. Compare vehicles, track efficiency over time and spot problems early.
Worked example
Example calculated from the starting values. Enter your own values and press Calculate to get your result.
With the default inputs (distance driven = 520 km, fuel used = 41 L), the results are: fuel consumption 7.88 L/100km; distance per litre 12.68 km/L.

Frequently asked questions
What formula does this calculator use?
Fuel consumption = l ÷ d × 100; Distance per litre = d ÷ l. Variables: d = distance driven in km, l = fuel used in L.
What do I need to enter?
You need distance driven (km), fuel used (L). Results update as you type.
What is an example result?
With the default inputs (distance driven = 520 km, fuel used = 41 L), the results are: fuel consumption 7.88 L/100km; distance per litre 12.68 km/L.
