Pourquoi est-ce masculin ?
Litres is masculine in French. While it does derive from Greek origins (via Latin), the explanation conflates the etymology. The word comes from the Greek "litra" (a unit of weight/capacity). In French, "litre" is masculine, which is typical for scientific and measurement terms borrowed from Greek and Latin, particularly those that entered French during the scientific revolution and metric system standardization. The masculine gender is not explained by the Latin "-a" ending rule, as "litre" ends in "-e" in French.
