45 mpg (US) to L/100km
5.23 L/100km
45 miles per US gallon equals 5.227 litres per 100 kilometres.
Consumption and economy are inverses of each other, so the conversion is a division rather than a multiplication — and a lower L/100km figure means a higher mpg.
How the conversion works
This one is a formula rather than a single multiplier:
mpg (US) = 235.215 ÷ (L/100km), and the same the other way → 5.227 L/100km
Going the other way: 5 L/100km to mpg (US) — the closest published value to 5.23 L/100km.
