Fuel consumption calculator
Enter the distance driven and the amount of fuel used.
How is fuel consumption calculated?
Divide the fuel used by the distance driven and multiply the result by 100. For example, 45 litres over 650 km is about 6.92 l/100 km.
How to calculate fuel consumption
If you know the distance travelled and fuel used, consumption can be expressed in litres per 100 kilometres. The calculator does this automatically and makes it easy to compare different trips.
Why does real fuel consumption vary?
Traffic, speed, temperature, tyre pressure, vehicle load, route and driving style all affect consumption. A single short trip may therefore differ from the vehicle’s long-term average.
Frequently asked questions
How can I get a more accurate result?
Fill the tank, drive a meaningful distance, then record the kilometres travelled and the amount of fuel needed to refill the tank.
What does l/100 km mean?
It shows how many litres of fuel a vehicle uses on average to travel 100 kilometres.
