Litres to Miles Calculator

Estimate driving range from litres and UK MPG.

Estimate your range

Enter your vehicle’s UK MPG to calculate an estimate.

What your result means

Litres alone cannot determine driving range: the estimate also needs your vehicle’s UK MPG. The result is a fuel-only range estimate and real-world range can vary with conditions.

Worked example

Using 10 litres and 45 UK MPG:

UK gallons
2.2
Estimated range
99 miles

The calculator uses the same litres-to-UK-gallons conversion before applying MPG.

Formula

UK gallons=Litres4.54609\text{UK gallons}=\frac{\text{Litres}}{4.54609}
Miles=UK gallons×UK MPG\text{Miles}=\text{UK gallons}\times\text{UK MPG}

Helpful questions

How far can I drive on 10 litres?

It depends on the UK MPG you enter. A higher MPG gives more estimated miles from the same litres.

Does this use UK or US gallons?

It uses UK / imperial MPG and the 4.54609-litre UK gallon. Measure your real UK MPG if you do not know the figure to enter.

Why might actual range be different?

Traffic, speed, driving style, vehicle load and weather can change real fuel consumption, so treat the result as an estimate.
