How far can the Lavida go when the fuel gauge shows 0 km?

When the Lavida's fuel gauge shows 0 km, it can still travel approximately 20 kilometers. The current fuel level of the vehicle can be viewed through the LCD screen. The Lavida is a compact 4-door, 5-seater sedan with the following body dimensions: length 4670mm, width 1806mm, height 1474mm, and a wheelbase of 2688mm. It is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, delivering a maximum power of 110 kW and a maximum torque of 250 Nm. The drivetrain is front-wheel drive, with a MacPherson strut independent suspension at the front and a torsion beam non-independent suspension at the rear.
I've encountered the fuel gauge showing 0 km several times before, especially when driving my old Lavida. Actually, there's still some reserve fuel left in the tank at this point - based on my experience, it can typically last about 40 km more. Of course, this depends heavily on road conditions. You can go farther on highways, but frequent stops at traffic lights in urban areas will burn fuel faster. I remember once pushing my luck by driving over 30 km to find a gas station while the dashboard warning lights were flashing. Although most cars have safety reserve fuel, don't rely too much on it. The fuel pump relies on gasoline for cooling, and prolonged operation with low fuel can cause damage. It's best to find the nearest gas station immediately - breaking down on the highway is no joke.
