The Airbus A380 burns approximately 4,600 gallons (17,400 L) of fuel per hour. The Airbus A320 burns approximately 750 gallons (3,000 L). Framed as raw fuel consumption, the A380 uses roughly six times as much fuel as the A320, which is not a surprising difference, given that one is a 1,268,000-pound (575,000 kg), four-engine, double-deck widebody and the other is a 172,000-pound (78,000 kg), twin-engine narrowbody. The comparison becomes more interesting when the calculation accounts for how many passengers each aircraft carries per unit of fuel it burns.
