How many kilometers can a car run when the fuel light is on?

Hongqi H5 has a fuel consumption of 8.85-9.16L/100km. Correct fuel consumption calculation formula: Fuel consumed ÷ Distance traveled × 100 = Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers. The data of fuel consumed is relatively difficult to obtain. Generally, a full tank is used as the initial data. After driving a certain distance, the tank is refilled again, and the fuel amount provided by the gas station is taken as the final data. Fuel-saving tips: When starting the vehicle, use a low gear, gently press the accelerator, and gradually increase speed. Do not suddenly press the accelerator hard, as this will multiply fuel consumption. Starting by gently pressing the accelerator can shorten the engine warm-up time and effectively improve fuel utilization, thereby achieving fuel-saving effects.
I've been driving for a while now. Every time the fuel light comes on, it means the fuel level is low, and generally, you can still drive about 30 to 50 kilometers, but it depends on the situation. My small car can only last around 30 kilometers in the city, but on highways or suburban roads with good conditions, it can go over 50 kilometers. Driving habits have a big impact—smooth acceleration and using the air conditioning less save fuel; stomping on the gas pedal or driving in heavy traffic consumes fuel quickly. I remember once on a long trip when the fuel light came on, I still drove 45 kilometers, but that was risky—the fuel pump could easily burn out or the car could break down. So, I always recommend refueling as soon as the light comes on and not delaying. Regular car checks can prevent false alarms, and knowing your car's fuel consumption per 100 kilometers helps estimate more accurately. In the end, safety comes first—don't take chances with your car.
