About Kilometers per Imperial Gallon

Kilometers per Imperial gallon (km/Imp gal) combines metric distances with the British Imperial gallon (4.54609 L). 1 km/Imp gal = 1/4.54609 km/L = 0.21997 km/L. A typical mid-size car at 12.75 km/L = 57.96 km/Imp gal. It appears in pre-1970s Australian road transport regulations, some South African vehicle import documentation, and pre-1979 Canadian fuel efficiency standards. Relationship to mpg(Imp): km/Imp gal = mpg(Imp) / 1.609344, so 50 mpg(Imp) = 31.07 km/Imp gal. 1 km/Imp gal = 0.21997 km/L.

About US Gallons per Mile

US gallons per mile is for extreme consumption: 1 US gal/mi = 235.215 L/100km. Only tanks, heavy mining equipment, or large ships fall into even the fractional gal/mi range. A Boeing 787 burns ~3.9 US gal/mi total (0.015 gal/mi per seat at 85% load factor, 257 seats). Commercial aircraft fleet-wide emission intensity is sometimes expressed in gal/mi per departure. Oceangoing vessels historically logged fuel in US gal/mi in American regulatory frameworks. 1 US gal/mi = 235.215 L/100km = 1 mpg(US) ÷ 100.
