What is Fuel Efficiency?
Fuel efficiency is a measure of how much fuel a vehicle consumes to travel a certain distance. It’s typically expressed in miles per gallon (MPG) or liters per 100 kilometers (L/100km). Understanding your car’s fuel efficiency can help you make informed decisions about driving habits, vehicle maintenance, and even which car to buy.
Fuel Efficiency Formula and Mathematical Explanation
The formula to calculate fuel efficiency is:
Fuel Efficiency = Distance Traveled / Fuel Used
Where:
| Variable | Meaning | Unit | Typical Range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Distance Traveled | The distance the vehicle has traveled | km | 0 – ∞ |
| Fuel Used | The amount of fuel consumed during the trip | liters | 0 – ∞ |
