broken reciprocal unit conversion from mpg to L/100 km

Posted 11 years ago

My US rental car displays an average fuel economy of 33.2 mpg. I would like WA to convert this to the Australian standard of fuel consumption in L/100km. Try "33.2 mpg in L/100km" This conversion has been broken since Day 1 of WA. Am I missing something?

Thanks Udo, I understand dimensional similarity. However, as I pointed out above, WA is smart enough to perform some reciprocal unit conversions. Try "33 mpg in L/km"

Of course, when querying for 33.2 mpg, Wolfram|Alpha tells us among other things that this corresponds to 7.1 L/100 km. enter image description here
