About Miles per Imperial Gallon

Miles per Imperial gallon (mpg(Imp)) is the UK and historically Commonwealth standard. The Imperial gallon (4.54609 L) is ~20.1% larger than the US gallon, so mpg(Imp) is always numerically higher: a 7 L/100km car achieves 33.6 mpg(US) but 40.4 mpg(Imp). All UK VCA-certified specs list mpg(Imp). Typical WLTP combined: supermini 45-60 mpg; full hybrid 55-75 mpg; diesel family car 48-68 mpg; large petrol SUV 28-38 mpg. 1 mpg(Imp) = 1.609344/4.54609 km/L = 0.354006 km/L; L/100km = 282.481/mpg(Imp).

About Microliters per Kilometer

A microliter per kilometer (µL/km) equals 10⁻⁴ L/100km - a unit reserved for laboratory engine testing and fuel cell research. A car consuming 7 L/100km corresponds to 70,000 µL/km, illustrating why µL/km is used only for scientific contexts: GDI injectors deliver 10-50 µL per injection event; engine oil blowby consumption is measured in 50-500 µL/km; hydrogen fuel cell prototype comparisons use µL-equivalent/km. Single-cylinder research engines log fuel use in µL/shot to map combustion efficiency across load sweeps. 1 µL/km = 0.0001 L/100km.
