    Kmpl Is quite different and convenient than Litre/100Km. It makes you immediately know and how much litres the vehicle will run how much kilometre. The option of kilometre per litre fuel efficiency unit should bring in BeamNG UI.

    Agree. Not commonly used but then l/100mpg is esoteric in itself but still widespread.

    I think if anything it should be Miles per galon since that basically what everyone else uses. Only the US uses KpL

    It is already in game, in UI Trip-Computer, where you have odometer, average speed, current fuel consumption, average fuel consumption and distance left with current fuel.

    No, the US doesn't use KpL. We use MpG

    240 / liters per 100 km = mpg (more accurate 235). So 8 liters = 240/8= 30 mpg

    & not only that, a US gallon is different to an EU gallon.

    England is even more confusing with the fact that they use miles but also use liters

    It would be quite confusing for me to get a car imported from Canada because they use kilometers and gallons
