How far can a BMW drive when the fuel tank reaches the reserve level?
1 Answers
When a BMW's fuel tank reaches the reserve level, it can drive approximately 30 kilometers. Fuel gauge: The fuel gauge is marked with two letters, E and F. F stands for full, while E indicates low fuel. When the fuel icon lights up, it means the remaining fuel is low, and you should refuel as soon as possible. Digital fuel gauges display the remaining fuel through illuminated segments. More illuminated segments indicate sufficient fuel, while only 1-2 segments mean the fuel level is low and requires timely refueling. Fuel tank capacity: Generally, small cars have a fuel tank capacity of 35-45 liters, while mid-sized cars have a capacity of around 55-75 liters. A full tank typically allows a driving range of about 500 kilometers. The size of the fuel tank depends on the car's displacement and fuel consumption—higher consumption means a larger tank, and vice versa. In China, the standard fuel tank capacity is set at 95% of the rated value, but in practice, the actual capacity is usually larger than the nominal capacity. Therefore, there is no need to worry about the fuel tank being smaller than expected.
