Questions people ask

MPG or L/100km?
They are reciprocals: 235.215 divided by one gives the other. MPG rises as efficiency improves, L/100km falls. This page defaults to metric, which is what pumps in Switzerland use.
What is fuel costing in Switzerland?
The default here is CHF 1.80 per litre, a reasonable recent figure for Switzerland. Pump prices move weekly, so put in what you actually paid.
Should I use the sticker efficiency?
Real-world consumption usually runs 10–20% worse than the official figure, more so in cold weather or city traffic.
