Can a car continue to drive when it has no fuel left in the gauge? Different models of vehicles vary, but generally, after the fuel gauge pointer drops to zero, there is still about 2 liters of fuel remaining. Based on the average fuel consumption of a typical family car at around 6L/100Km, 2 liters can roughly allow the car to travel about 33Km. Below is additional information on fuel-saving methods for cars: 1. Ensure the tire pressure is correct. Underinflated or overinflated tires will increase fuel consumption, so tire pressure should be checked regularly. 2. Switch to fuel-efficient tires. For example, Pirelli's P6000 Powergy tires can reduce resistance by about 15%, helping to save approximately 3.75% of gasoline. 3. Do not arbitrarily change the size of the tires. Wider tires increase wheel resistance, leading to higher fuel consumption. 4. Regularly check if the steering wheel and tires are properly aligned. Over time, tires and the steering wheel can become misaligned, which also consumes more fuel. 5. Use the lowest viscosity engine oil. The lower the viscosity of the engine oil, the less "effort" the engine has to exert, resulting in better fuel efficiency.
