.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty margin-bottom:0;
In America we say the fuel economy of car in miles/gallon. I know in k countries people use liters/100 km. Some countries use km/liter.
My question is: Which format is used in Mexico, Colombia, and India, L/100 km or km/L?

Is there an end goal related to travel for your question?

Hi and welcome. I fail to see the travel aspect of this question. Are you planning a road trip across these countries? Or are you just planning to buy a car there?

A calculator or google can quickly convert one to another. If any of the conversion pairs involves gallons, make sure you are using the correct type of gallons (US gallons are considerably smaller than Imperial gallons).

A quick look at some Mexican auto dealers' web sites shows them using km/L. Examples: 1 2
1
There's not much difference between a litre and a Litre...
– Michael Hampton
Mar 23 '16 at 23:18
So I can say 10 km/L or 10 km/l. Both are correct?
– Tony
Mar 23 '16 at 23:24
@Tony Yes, L and l both mean litre.
– Michael Hampton
Mar 23 '16 at 23:27
It is km/l in India as well. Source: I'm an Indian :)

@MichaelHampton Abbreviations for physical units and SI prefixes are indeed case sensitive. mg, Mg, mG and MG are four different things.
