SponsoredThis calculator converts a volume in liters to US quarts by dividing by the exact size of one quart in liters; multiplying the liter value by about 1.0566882094 gives the same answer to ten decimal places. One US quart is defined as exactly 946.352946 mL, so this factor carries no rounding at all.
Liters to quarts is a common conversion for comparing a metric recipe or product against a US quart measurement, since the two units are close in size but not identical. This comes up often in cooking, canning, and comparing engine oil or coolant specifications.
For the reverse direction, converting quarts back into liters, or converting a liter value into pints instead, see the related converters below.

How Many Quarts in a Liter
A liter is about 1.056688 US quarts, a little more than one quart, because a US quart is exactly 0.946352946 liter.
A Common Reference Point: Engine Oil
Engine oil is often sold in liters outside the US and quarts within it, making this a genuinely practical conversion for checking whether a bottle labeled in liters covers a car's quart-specified oil capacity. A 5-liter bottle, for example, covers about 5.28 quarts.
Why the Two Units Are So Close
A liter and a quart are close in size, within about 5.7% of each other, purely by historical coincidence, not by any shared definition. This makes them easy to confuse in casual use, even though the exact conversion factor is not a round number.
To find what a volume weighs, the Liters to Pounds Converter converts liters to pounds for water, milk, flour, sugar, honey, or butter. The Quarts to Pounds Converter does the same starting from quarts. Since 1 liter is exactly 1,000 cubic centimeters, the Liters to Cubic Centimeters Converter covers volumes written in cc.
