About Nautical Miles per Liter
Nautical miles per liter (nmi/L) quantifies how far a vessel travels on one liter of fuel. 1 nmi/L = 1.852 km/L. Typical values: sailing yacht under auxiliary diesel ~0.2-0.5 nmi/L; fast 35-knot catamaran ferry ~0.003-0.008 nmi/L; outboard RIB at planning speed ~0.01-0.04 nmi/L. A sportsboat with a 200 L tank at 0.08 nmi/L has ~16 nmi theoretical range, reduced by 30-40% safety margin. Maritime energy efficiency programs under MARPOL Annex VI reference nmi/L before normalising for cargo capacity. 1 nmi/L = 1.852 km/L.
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.
