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.
About Miles per Liter
Miles per liter (mi/L) appears in regions where fuel is dispensed in liters but road distances follow older imperial maps - parts of Sub-Saharan Africa, the Middle East, and South Asia. 1 mi/L = 1.609344 km/L. A car at 10 mi/L = 16.09 km/L = 37.85 mpg(US). India's auto press used mi/L before metrication; some Pakistani logistics companies still use it for long-haul route-efficiency reports. Converting: mpg(US) = mi/L × 3.785411784; mpg(Imp) = mi/L × 4.54609. 1 mi/L = 1.609344 km/L.
