How far can a Haval H6 go after the fuel gauge light comes on?

When the car's fuel gauge light comes on, the car can still travel between 30 to 60 kilometers. Below is some relevant information about the car's fuel gauge: 1. The car's fuel gauge is located on the dashboard and is commonly found in two types: pointer-style and electronic-style. The letters F and E are marked at both ends, with F indicating a full tank and E indicating an empty tank; 2. Generally, when the car's fuel gauge shows 0, it means the tank is out of fuel, but the car can still travel a certain distance using the reserve tank; 3. The fuel tank light coming on does not mean the car has no fuel, but rather that the fuel in the tank is insufficient and has reached the warning line, reminding the owner to refuel in time.
As a veteran driver of a Haval H6, I've encountered the fuel warning light coming on quite a few times. Generally, you can still drive about 60 to 80 kilometers. But I never take this number for granted because there are too many influencing factors. For example, when stuck in city traffic with high fuel consumption, the range might shrink to less than 50 kilometers; whereas on the highway at a steady speed, you might stretch it to nearly 100 kilometers. Once during an outing, I forgot to refuel and had to navigate to the nearest service station after the light came on—I drove about 65 kilometers before filling up. Important reminder: Running too low on fuel can cause the fuel pump to overheat and fail by sucking in air instead of fuel, leading to costly repairs. My advice: once the light comes on, head to a gas station as soon as possible—don't delay. It's best to develop a habit of refueling when the tank drops to a quarter full—it saves a lot of hassle.
As someone who frequently contemplates automobiles, I've analyzed the fuel gauge warning light situation in the Haval H6. The illuminated light indicates there are 5 to 8 liters of fuel remaining in the tank. Based on its average fuel consumption of 8-10 liters per 100 kilometers, theoretically it can still travel 50 to 80 kilometers. However, this isn't absolute—under conditions like rapid acceleration or heavy loads, fuel consumption spikes dramatically, reducing the distance. I always install a mobile app or an onboard OBD tool to monitor the remaining mileage in real-time for greater accuracy. Running too low on fuel can damage the fuel pump circuit and increase maintenance costs. Therefore, my strategy is to plan refueling as soon as the light comes on, without pushing to the limit. By the way, here's a tip: during regular maintenance, have the technician check the fuel pump's condition. Preventive maintenance can extend the component's lifespan.
