14 kmpl converts to approximately 32.9182 mpg.
This conversion is done by multiplying the kilometers per liter (kmpl) value by 2.35215 to get miles per gallon (mpg). The factor comes from the relationship between kilometers to miles and liters to gallons.

Conversion Formula
To convert kmpl (kilometers per liter) to mpg (miles per gallon), multiply the kmpl value by 2.35215. The formula is:
mpg = kmpl × 2.35215
This works because 1 kilometer equals about 0.621371 miles, and 1 liter equals approximately 0.264172 gallons. So the conversion factor is:
0.621371 miles / 0.264172 gallons ≈ 2.35215
Step-by-step:
- Start with 14 kmpl.
- Multiply by 0.621371 to convert kilometers to miles: 14 × 0.621371 = 8.699194 miles.
- Divide by 0.264172 to convert liters to gallons: 8.699194 ÷ 0.264172 ≈ 32.9182 mpg.
Conversion Example
- Example: Convert 20 kmpl to mpg
- Multiply 20 by 2.35215: 20 × 2.35215 = 47.043 mpg.
- So, 20 kmpl equals 47.043 mpg.
- Example: Convert 7.5 kmpl to mpg
- Calculate 7.5 × 2.35215 = 17.6411 mpg.
- This means 7.5 kmpl equals roughly 17.6411 mpg.
- Example: Convert 30 kmpl to mpg
- 30 × 2.35215 = 70.5645 mpg.
- This shows 30 kmpl converts to about 70.5645 mpg.

Conversion Definitions
kmpl: Kilometers per liter (kmpl) measures how many kilometers a vehicle can travel using one liter of fuel. It’s commonly used in countries using the metric system to express fuel efficiency, indicating distance covered per unit of fuel consumed.
mpg: Miles per gallon (mpg) indicates how many miles a vehicle travels using one gallon of fuel. It’s used mainly in the United States and United Kingdom, showing fuel economy by expressing distance per volume of fuel consumed.
Conversion FAQs
Why does multiplying kmpl by 2.35215 convert it to mpg?
Because the conversion factor accounts for the different units in distance and volume. A kilometer is shorter than a mile, and a liter is smaller than a gallon. Multiplying combines these ratios: miles per kilometer and gallons per liter, giving an accurate mpg value.
Can I use the same conversion factor for imperial and US gallons?
No, the factor 2.35215 is based on US gallons (1 US gallon = 3.78541 liters). Imperial gallons are larger (4.54609 liters), so conversion to mpg (imperial) requires a different factor, about 2.8248 instead.
What happens if I input a negative kmpl value in the tool?
Negative kmpl values don’t represent real fuel efficiency and result in negative mpg outputs. The tool calculates mathematically but negative fuel economy isn’t meaningful in practical terms.
Is the conversion exact for all vehicle types?
The formula assumes consistent unit conversions; however, real-world fuel consumption can vary due to measurement methods, fuel types, and driving conditions, so converted values should be considered approximations.
Can this conversion formula be reversed to get kmpl from mpg?
Yes, to convert mpg back to kmpl, divide the mpg value by 2.35215. This reverses the earlier multiplication, returning the original kmpl equivalent.
