Enter the distance traveled and the fuel used into the calculator to determine the kilometers per liter your vehicle gets. This calculator helps in assessing the fuel efficiency of your vehicle.

Km Per Liter Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the kilometers per liter.

KPL = D / F

Variables:

  • KPL is the kilometers per liter
  • D is the distance traveled (kilometers)
  • F is the fuel used (liters)

To calculate the kilometers per liter, divide the distance traveled by the fuel used.

What is Km Per Liter?

Km per liter (KPL) is a measure of fuel efficiency used to determine how many kilometers a vehicle can travel on one liter of fuel. This metric is commonly used in countries that use the metric system. It is an important measure for understanding the fuel consumption of a vehicle and can help in budgeting for fuel costs and environmental considerations.

How to Calculate Km Per Liter?

The following steps outline how to calculate the kilometers per liter.


  1. First, determine the distance traveled (D) in kilometers.
  2. Next, determine the fuel used (F) in liters.
  3. Next, gather the formula from above = KPL = D / F.
  4. Finally, calculate the kilometers per liter (KPL).
  5. After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.

Example Problem : 

Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.

distance traveled (D) = 150 kilometers

fuel used (F) = 8 liters
