Exameter/liter
An exameter per liter (Em/L) is a unit of fuel consumption measuring the distance in exameters traveled per liter of fuel.
History/Origin
The exameter (Em) is a large unit of length used primarily in scientific contexts, representing 10^18 meters. Its use in fuel consumption is theoretical and not common in practical applications.
Current Use
The Em/L unit is rarely used in modern fuel consumption measurements and is mainly of academic interest or for large-scale scientific calculations involving extremely long distances.
Gallon (Us)/mile
A unit of fuel consumption measurement representing the number of gallons used per mile traveled.
History/Origin
The gallon (US) has been used in the United States since the 19th century as a standard measure of volume for liquids, particularly fuel. The mile has been a customary unit of distance in the US and UK, with its origins tracing back to Roman times. The combination of gallons per mile is primarily used in the US to measure vehicle fuel efficiency.
Current Use
This unit is used mainly in the United States for expressing fuel consumption, especially in older or specialized contexts. It is less common today, with miles per gallon (mpg) being the more standard metric for fuel efficiency, but gallons per mile may still be used in certain technical or historical analyses.
