User Guide
This fuel consumption calculator will take the quantity of liquid fuel used and the distance travelled by a petrol, gasoline or diesel engine powered motor vehicle, and determine the average fuel consumption performance for that journey.
Formula
The fuel consumption formula used by this calculator is:
FC = V / d
Symbols
- FC = Fuel Consumption
- V = Fuel volume
- d = Distance travelled
Fuel Volume Used
Enter the total quantity of fuel used during the trip.
Distance Travelled
Enter the total distance of the trip in any units.
Fuel Consumption
This is the average amount of fuel used per unit of distance travelled calculated from the entered journey volume and distance. Volume per distance fuel consumption is often used to compare the fuel efficiency of motor vehicles which have engines that run on liquid fuels such as petrol, gasoline or diesel.
