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 Metres per kilogram
The metre per kilogram (m/kg) is the SI coherent derived unit of mass-based fuel efficiency. It is used in combustion research, rocket propellant comparative testing, and laboratory fuel-cell efficiency benchmarking. A car at 15 km/kg petrol = 15 000 m/kg; a hydrogen fuel cell bus at 120 km/kg H₂ = 120 000 m/kg. 1 m/kg = 1e⁻³ km/kg = 1/1000 km/kg.
