1. What is Fuel Consumption Per Km?

Fuel consumption per kilometer measures how many liters of fuel a vehicle uses to travel one kilometer. It's a standard metric for comparing vehicle efficiency.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the simple formula:

Where:

• Fuel Used — Measured in liters (L)
• Distance Traveled — Measured in kilometers (km)

Explanation: This calculation gives you the average fuel consumption rate for a specific trip or period of driving.

3. Importance of Fuel Consumption Calculation

Details: Knowing your vehicle's fuel consumption helps with trip planning, budgeting for fuel costs, and monitoring vehicle performance over time.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: For accurate results, measure fuel used between full tank fill-ups and record the exact distance traveled between fill-ups.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: How can I improve my fuel consumption?
A: Maintain proper tire pressure, reduce excess weight, avoid aggressive driving, and keep up with regular vehicle maintenance.

Q2: What's a good fuel consumption rate?
A: This varies by vehicle type. Compact cars might average 0.06-0.08 L/km, while SUVs might average 0.10-0.15 L/km.

Q3: Should I calculate over multiple fill-ups?
A: Yes, calculating over several tanks gives a more accurate average consumption rate.

Q4: Does air conditioning affect consumption?
A: Yes, AC use can increase fuel consumption by 5-20% depending on conditions.

Q5: How does city vs highway driving affect consumption?
A: Stop-and-go city driving typically uses more fuel per km than steady highway driving.
