Civic can run more than 400 kilometers on a full tank of gas. Here are the specific details about the Civic: 1. Background: The Civic is equipped with Michelin 205/50R17 Pilot Sport 3 tires, which replace the previous Pilot Exalto and Pilot Sport 2 series. These tires use more environmentally friendly rubber materials and incorporate silicon particles to help reduce tire heating during driving. They also feature special tread patterns to improve drainage performance, ensuring better grip and traction while reducing the risk of skidding. 2. Space: The Civic performs well in terms of space, with ample legroom in both the front and rear seats. The front seats offer generous headroom, and the rear floor has a less noticeable center hump, enhancing practicality. The storage compartments are functional, and the trunk space has been improved compared to older models.
Last time I filled up my Civic, I specifically calculated it. The tank holds 47 liters when full, and I can easily exceed 500 kilometers with mixed city and highway driving. During daily commutes with heavy traffic, the fuel consumption is higher, around 8 to 9 liters per 100 km, but even then, it can still cover over 400 kilometers. On weekends when I go out for trips on the highway, it’s even more fuel-efficient, averaging just over 6 liters per 100 km, easily reaching 600 kilometers. However, if you’re particularly aggressive with the throttle, always racing to be first at traffic lights, the fuel consumption can skyrocket to over 12 liters per 100 km. At that point, no matter how big the tank is, it won’t last long—you’ll need to ease up. Overall, the Civic can effortlessly cover over 400 kilometers on a full tank, making it more than enough for a week of commuting.
As a Civic owner for three years, I can responsibly say that a full tank can easily cover over 400 kilometers. My 1.5T model has a 47-liter fuel tank, and with my daily 20km commute through terrible rush hour traffic, the fuel consumption stays around 8.5L/100km - a full tank lasts me two weeks. When taking highways to neighboring cities at 120km/h with cruise control, it's even more fuel-efficient. Last trip to Qingdao covered 500+ km without the fuel light coming on. Though winter heating or max AC in summer does increase consumption, the range never drops below 400km. Remember to maintain proper tire pressure and change engine oil promptly - these details really help solidify the range.
