SponsoredThis calculator converts a volume in US quarts to liters using the exact factor: multiply the quart value by 0.946352946. One US quart is defined as exactly 946.352946 mL, so this factor carries no rounding at all.
Quarts to liters is a common conversion for comparing a US recipe or product against a metric liter measurement, since the two units are close in size but not identical. This comes up often in cooking, automotive fluid capacities, and comparing US and international product sizes.
For the reverse direction, converting liters back into quarts, or converting a quart value into pints instead, see the related converters below.

A Common Reference Point: a 4-Quart Engine
A car engine specified to hold 4 quarts of oil needs approximately 3.79 liters, a real, common conversion for drivers checking an oil bottle labeled in liters against a US owner's manual specified in quarts.
Why the Two Units Are So Close
A quart and a liter 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 Quarts to Pounds Converter converts quarts to pounds for water, milk, flour, sugar, honey, or butter. The Liters to Pounds Converter does the same starting from liters. If the recipe serves the wrong number of people, the Recipe Scaling Calculator rescales each ingredient amount before you convert it.
