About Liters per Kilometer

Liters per kilometer (L/km) is 100× larger than L/100km, suited to heavy vehicles and industrial machinery. A European family car at 0.07 L/km; a Class 8 semi-truck 0.33-0.40 L/km; an M1 Abrams tank ~1.3 L/km on road, ~4 L/km off-road; a diesel mainline locomotive 5-8 L/km. Australian road trains (200+ t) log fuel in L/km to plan outback depot spacing. A Caterpillar 793F mining dump truck fully laden uses 4-6 L/km. 1 L/km = 100 L/100km.

It appears in older Royal Navy vessel technical logs and historical British railway and steam-locomotive records. As mpg(Imp) and gal/mi are reciprocals, a 50 mpg(Imp) car uses exactly 0.02 Imp gal/mi = 5.650 L/100km. 1 Imp gal/mi = 282.481 L/100km.
