: Where did you found "VKT", not included in your reference? Do you also propose "Vehicle Hours Travelled"?

Zuteilungsschlüssel sind, je zur Hälfte die Schlüssel Rechnungswagenkilometer und Rechnungswagenstunden der Verkehrsunternehmen im Bedienungsgebiet des VRR.

Similar terms are Passenger Car Equivalents and Passenger Car Units, but cannot be used as they refer to the speed rather than to the kilometres:
Passenger Car Equivalent (PCE), is a metric used in Transportation Engineering, to assess traffic-flow rate on a highway.[1] A Passenger Car Equivalent is essentially the impact that a mode of transport has on traffic variables (such as headway, speed, density) compared to a single car. For example, typical values of PCE (or PCU) are:
private car (including taxis or pick-up) 1
motorcycle 0.5
bicycle 0.2
horse-drawn vehicle 4
bus, tractor, truck 3.5
Highway capacity is measured in PCE/hour daily
Passenger Car Equivalent is also sometimes used interchangeably with Passenger car unit (PCU).

Equivalent terminology for “Rechnungswagenstunden”:
Our industry uses vehicle equivalent hours (VEU's) associated with each vehicle/equipment based on class code. Example; a VEU ofi equates to the needs for 14 hours of support per year.
http://ww2.durhamnc.gov/annexation/751_Report/pdf/10.pdf
An industry standard of vehicle equivalent hours is used to estimate the number of mechanics needed to service the fleet and is based on the types of vehicles.

: Your references only show the German term being used, and nothing to back up your suggestion.// There's little convenient about that. You suggested kilometers, now you're quoting hours.

For your convenience I added some English references. / I quoted "vehicle equivalent" composed to"kilometers" and "hours", as in the context given.

Discussion
Examples:
Kippfallprüfung = toppling test;
Kippflügel = pivot-hung window;
Kippflügeldrehpunkt = sash center;
Kippmoment = overturning moment;
Kipppunkt = breakover point, change-over point, transition point;
Kippversuch = pull-out test;
Kippvorrichtung = tipping or tilting device.
In this case it was easy. So I proposed two similar terms "vehicle equivalent kilometers" and "vehicle equivalent hours". Both contain the same particles "vehicle equivalent", which corresponds to "Rechnungswagen".
