How many kilometers can a Buick Excelle run after the fuel gauge light comes on?

When the fuel gauge light comes on, an average family sedan can still run approximately 50-90 kilometers. Normal driving: There are requirements in this regard. The vehicle's fuel tank must ensure a driving range of 500-600 kilometers, meaning that vehicles with higher fuel consumption will have larger fuel tanks. When the vehicle's fuel gauge indicator light comes on, the standard driving distance at this point is 50 kilometers, which is considered normal driving. Buick fuel consumption: The Buick Excelle model should still have about 5 liters of fuel left in its tank. It's hard to estimate when driving in the city due to traffic congestion and numerous traffic lights. Therefore, when the vehicle's fuel indicator light comes on, you should quickly find a gas station to refuel; otherwise, the vehicle may become unable to run due to lack of fuel.
I've driven several cars, including the Buick Excelle. Every time the fuel light comes on, I estimate how much farther I can go. The Buick Excelle has a fuel tank capacity of about 45 liters, with 7 to 10 liters remaining when the light turns on. The average fuel consumption is around 8 to 10 liters per 100 kilometers in the city, and it can be more economical on the highway, possibly 6 to 8 liters per 100 kilometers. Based on this, you can expect to drive about 70 to 150 kilometers. However, this entirely depends on how you drive: in city traffic with frequent stops, fuel consumption is higher, and the distance is shorter; on a smooth highway, driving economically can extend the range. Weather and the car's age also play a role—older cars might have slower fuel pumps. Once, I drove 100 kilometers after the light came on before refueling, but to be safe, don't push your luck. Find a gas station as soon as possible. Running out of fuel can damage the fuel pump or risk stalling. If you're really stuck, pull over and seek help. The most reliable habit is to refuel frequently.
