What this tool does
Convert kilowatt-hours per 100 miles to miles per kilowatt-hour for EV efficiency. Type an amount in kilowatt-hours per 100 miles, choose the units, and the tool converts it to miles per kilowatt-hour. It offers 5 electric vehicle efficiency units and also shows the same amount in the others.
Inputs
- Value: A number.
- From: Choose one: Kilometer per kilowatt-hour, Mile per kilowatt-hour, Mile per gallon gasoline equivalent (MPGe), Kilowatt-hour per 100 kilometers, Kilowatt-hour per 100 miles. Starts as Kilowatt-hour per 100 miles.
- To: Choose one of the same 5 units as "From". Starts as Mile per kilowatt-hour.
How to use
- Enter the amount you want to convert.
- Choose the unit to convert from and the unit to convert to.
- Read the result: the converted amount and the same amount in the other units. It appears once every required field has a valid value.
Worked examples
Conversions from kilowatt-hours per 100 miles to miles per kilowatt-hour:
- 1 kWh/100 mi = 100 mi/kWh
- 5 kWh/100 mi = 20 mi/kWh
- 10 kWh/100 mi = 10 mi/kWh
- 50 kWh/100 mi = 2 mi/kWh
- 100 kWh/100 mi = 1 mi/kWh
Divide 100 by the number of kilowatt-hours per 100 miles to get miles per kilowatt-hour. Both units are exact definitions, so 100 is the exact factor: 1 kWh/100 mi = 100 mi/kWh.
Sources: Kilowatt-hour per 100 miles: exact by definition. Mile per kilowatt-hour: exact by definition.
Limitations
- Converts the unit of an efficiency figure only. It does not estimate range, charging losses or running cost.
FAQs
- Q: How do I convert kWh/100 mi to mi/kWh?
- A: Enter the value, keep kilowatt-hours per 100 miles (kWh/100 mi) in the From box and miles per kilowatt-hour (mi/kWh) in the To box. For example, 30 kWh/100 mi is about 3.333 mi/kWh.
- Q: Why does a bigger number mean the opposite here?
- A: Km/kWh, mi/kWh and MPGe count distance per unit of energy, so a higher number is more efficient. kWh per 100 km or 100 miles counts energy per distance, so a lower number is more efficient. Converting between the two kinds is a reciprocal, not a fixed multiplier.
- Q: Can I convert from mi/kWh to kWh/100 mi instead?
- A: Yes. Swap the From and To boxes. For example, 30 mi/kWh is about 3.333 kWh/100 mi.
