L/100 miles to L/100km
 
Hi, I have got Mazda 6 TS 136 2005. My trip computer showing fuel usage in litres per 100 miles, does someone knows how to change to litres per 100 kilometres?

Thanks :)

That's interesting, half metric and half imperial ? You sure that's not mpg or L/100KM ?

Mine shows L/100 miles - or it did before it went in for an engine transplant (still awaiting delivery of the engine). I suppose because fuel is now sold per litre in the UK while distances are still measured in imperial miles.

First, there is a nautical mile, a statute mile, but NO imperial mile.
The UK "road mile" is a statute mile. A Kilometer is 5/8 of a statute mile.
So a car using 8L/ 100 mi. uses 5L/100 Kilometers.

Hmm, British measurements are called imperial, pound/ounce, inch/mile. I bet you the mile is a British statute. Buying fuel in litres makes it look cheaper, $1/litre sounds much less than $4.5/gallon. BTW, when did this buy fuel in litre start?
