What is a US gallon?
Exactly 231 cubic inches. The imperial gallon is 4.546 liters, so US and UK fuel economy figures are not comparable.
What is a cubic centimetre?
A thousandth of a litre, which makes it exactly a millilitre — the same volume under two names. Engine displacement uses cc and medicine uses ml for the identical quantity.
How many cubic centimetres are in a US gallon?
One US gallon is 3785.4118 cubic centimetres. Going the other way, one cubic centimetre is 2.6417 × 10^-4 US gallons. Both figures come from the same defined relation rather than from a measurement, which is why they are the same today as they were in 1959.
