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

When the fuel gauge light of a Vios comes on, it can still run for about 50 kilometers. Below are some driving tips when running low on fuel: 1. Control your speed reasonably: After reaching the economic speed, the higher the speed, the more fuel it consumes. Therefore, it is best to keep the speed below 100km/h. On highways, pay attention to the minimum speed limit signs and avoid driving below the minimum speed to prevent danger. 2. Avoid using high-power electrical devices: Such as air conditioning, navigation, etc. These high-power devices increase the engine load, further affecting fuel consumption. 3. Drive smoothly and reduce braking: This includes shifting gears properly, pressing the accelerator gently, anticipating the movements of surrounding vehicles and road conditions in advance, and minimizing the use of brakes. 4. Exit highways and elevated roads before running out of fuel: Parking in these areas is unsafe. Closed roads make it impossible to turn around or cross, and delivering fuel is inconvenient. More importantly, these locations are not covered by insurance companies' free fuel delivery services.

I've driven this Vios for five or six years and encountered the low fuel warning light several times. When the fuel light comes on, there's actually about 7 liters of gasoline left. For regular city driving where the car consumes around 6 liters per 100 kilometers, it can typically last for about 80 kilometers. However, if you're stuck in traffic or using the air conditioning, you might only manage around 60 kilometers before needing to refuel. I remember once on the highway when the light came on, I pushed it to 90 kilometers before finding a gas station, but I wouldn't recommend taking such risks. Running too low on fuel can prevent the fuel pump from cooling properly and may lead to malfunctions. So when the light comes on, it's best to head to the nearest gas station.

As someone who often helps friends with car repairs, I find the fuel light design of the Vios quite reasonable. When the light comes on, it means there's only about 10% fuel left, roughly 7-8 liters. Based on this car's fuel consumption, you can drive approximately 90 kilometers on the highway and about 60 kilometers in the city. However, I must remind you that I've seen many cars suffer from impurities being sucked into the fuel lines due to extremely low fuel levels, resulting in expensive cleaning costs later. It's best to refuel when the gauge reaches one-quarter. If you do encounter the fuel light, don't panic - turn off the AC and maintain a steady speed. You'll definitely have enough time to find a gas station within 30 kilometers.

Last week when picking up my child from school, I noticed the fuel warning light in my Vios was on. At that time, the odometer showed I could still drive about 75 kilometers. I usually refuel immediately when the light comes on, especially since I don't want to take risks with my child in the car. Although the fuel tank is small, this car is fuel-efficient - during rush hour commutes, it can typically run about 65 kilometers. I recommend installing a mobile navigation app set to prioritize displaying gas station locations. This way when the light comes on, you can navigate directly to the nearest station, usually resolving it within 20 minutes. Just remember not to exceed a 70-kilometer range.
