  • Europe has been describing efficiency in liters per 100km as long as I can remember.

    I read that headline several times as Miles per gallon, despite it not saying that.

  • If the average range of a car is 200 miles par tank of fuel.
    Then you want a smaller tank.

    10 mpg = 0.10 gpm = 20 gp200m
    20 mpg = 0.05 gpm = 10 gp200m
    25 mpg = 0.04 gpm = 8 gp200m
    50 mpg = 0.02 gpm = 4 gp200m
    100 mpg = 0.01 gpm = 2 gp200m

    I've even done some of the math for you.
