About these units

The kilometer per liter (km/L) is a metric unit of fuel economy.

The mile per us gallon (MPG (US)) is a US customary unit of fuel economy, equal to 0.42514371 kilometers per liter.

Going the other way, 1 mile per us gallon = 0.42514371 kilometers per liter. Fuel economy is the classic inverted conversion: more miles per gallon is better, but fewer litres per 100 km is better. Because the relationship is reciprocal, the graph is a curve, not a straight line. Note that a US gallon is smaller than an imperial gallon, so US MPG figures always look worse than UK ones for the same car.
