Sorta. CBM is cubic meters and the entire world uses feet for shipping containers. For Intl logistics CBM and kg are the standard for volume and weight but they get loaded into containers measured in feet.
You’ll see similar stuff in other industries. Machining a lot of measurements are in mm but tolerances in “mils” or 1/1000 of an inch. Or medical where volume is in mL or drams.
When it comes to distance though I only really know miles.
Well for 750 mega liters that seems like a reasonable price. About 28 m³ per unit of money! Buy buy buy!
For context 28 CBM is about the volume of a 20’ container.
Or a stacked pallet is about 1.8 CBM so about 15 standard height pallets.
Proof that Americans will use literally anything but metric:
