According to the owner's needs, choose whether to apply undercoating. If you frequently drive on special road conditions, it is recommended to install it. Below is a related introduction to the advantages of automotive undercoating: Corrosion Protection for the Chassis: The car chassis is exposed during daily use and is prone to rust. When driving in relatively humid environments, residual wash water on the chassis can, over time, corrode the car chassis, leading to rust. Applying undercoating can help protect the car's chassis from corrosion. Reducing Impact from Stones: During driving, small stones may be kicked up. At high speeds, the destructive force of these stones increases, potentially causing damage to the car's chassis. After applying undercoating, the destructive force of small stones can be mitigated, protecting the car's chassis from being punctured by stones, which also contributes to the maintenance of the car's chassis.

What is the fuel tank capacity of the Skoda Octavia in liters?

The fuel tank capacity for all models of the Skoda Octavia is 51 liters when full. The vehicle's engine features natural aspiration intake, with a MacPherson strut front suspension and front-wheel drive configuration. In the same vehicle class, the Xingrui 2021 2.0TD Elite model has a fuel tank capacity of 50 liters, while the Sagitar 2022 200TSI Manual Flyover Edition also has a 50-liter fuel tank. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit, with additional space remaining from the safety limit to the tank opening. This extra space ensures that the fuel can expand when temperatures rise without overflowing the tank. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the calibrated tank capacity. To check the remaining fuel level, drivers can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, which is marked with 'E' and 'F'. When the needle approaches 'E', it indicates that the fuel is nearly depleted, while nearing 'F' signifies sufficient fuel.
