Yes, I know it's common elsewhere, but it's really hard to wrap my head around, having grown up with higher numbers are better in the Miles/Gallon scenario of the US. I don't claim any virtue for either, notice. Merely my own consternation trying to figure out what 8 litres/100km actually means in MPG. (29.4 miles/gallon, actually, but not something I can do in my head.)
