imperial gallons
Larger liquid units
Imperial gallons are the unit of liquid volume used in the British imperial system, equal to about 4.55 liters—roughly 20% larger than US gallons.
The distinction matters for fuel economy, recipes, and shipping: The car gets 35 miles per imperial gallon.
Countries formerly in the British Empire often retain imperial measurements.
