OK, I’m not the best at math, but this seems quite wrong to me.
My car’s fuel efficiency is entered as 27 miles per gallon. But, for example, if I calculate a trip of 19.3 miles, RouteXL tells me I’ll use 1.2 gallons of fuel. That works out to about 16 mpg, not 27.
What am I missing here??
It may be the numbers you are using. Can you give an example with screenshots?
OK, there’s a couple of screen shots. Shows my efficiency entered as 27 mpg, price of gas $2.50. For a trip of 139 miles, I should be using something more like 5.15 gallons, at a cost of $12.87. Right? Or has my brain slipped a gear?

You are right, that’s wrong indeed. We found the problem, the system is based on the metric system and the conversion of volume was done wrong. A fix for this was pushed to the website, so it should be correct now.
The quick fix is always the best! I figured it might have been this. Thanks!
