About Kilometres per pound
The kilometre per pound (km/lb) equals ≈2.205 km/kg, common in US-to-metric cross-border transport analysis and fuel research papers where distances are in km but fuel invoices are weighed in pounds. A car burning 6 kg/100 km petrol gets ≈16.7 km/kg = 7.57 km/lb. 1 km/lb = 1/0.45359237 km/kg ≈2.205 km/kg.
About Kilometres per gram
The kilometre per gram (km/g) equals 1000 km/kg, the unit for ultra-efficient propulsion systems and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. A Toyota Mirai at 140 km/kg H₂ = 0.14 km/g; hypothetical rocket-propellant comparison studies use km/g to express chemical energy density. A solid-propellant gas generator releasing 1 km of equivalent travel per gram of propellant represents extreme efficiency. 1 km/g = 1000 km/kg.
