mileage

Car's travel total

Mileage is distance measured in miles, especially as traveled by a vehicle: What's the mileage on your car?

It also means the rate of fuel consumption: This hybrid gets great mileage.

Figuratively, mileage is the usefulness or benefit derived from something: She got a lot of mileage out of that story.

A mileage allowance reimburses travel expenses.
