Mileage Calculator

Mileage tells you how far a vehicle travels on a litre of fuel. Measure it by filling the tank, driving, then refilling and noting the litres added.

How to use the Mileage Calculator

  1. Enter distance travelled.
  2. Enter fuel consumed in litres.
  3. Optionally add fuel price to see cost per km.

How it works

Formulas: Mileage (km/L) = Distance ÷ Fuel; Consumption (L/100 km) = Fuel ÷ Distance × 100; Cost per km = Fuel × Price ÷ Distance.

Worked example

320 km on 22 L is 14.5 km/L, or 6.9 L/100 km.

Good to know

Track it over several tanks for a reliable average.
