Actually its the other way around, Americans made it backwards once again.
If we show efficiency in this way 8L/100km we can easily calculate how much petrol we would need. For instance if we go to 350km trip we instantly know we will need 28L of petrol.
With mpg its the other way around - you instantly know how many miles you would go with said amount of gallons. And you should instantly know the opposite - how many gallons you would need for your trip.
American way is backwards.
