How many liters does it take to fill up the Sylphy's fuel tank?

The fuel tank capacity of the Sylphy 1.2L model is 41 liters, the classic 1.6L model has a 50-liter tank, and the 1.6L-CVT version comes with a 47-liter tank. These figures are officially released data. The Sylphy uses 92-octane fuel. The 1.2L model has a fuel consumption of 3.9L per 100 kilometers, allowing a range of 1051km on a full tank. The classic 1.6L model consumes 5.2-6.1L per 100 kilometers, providing a range of 819-961km on a full tank. The 1.6L-CVT version consumes 4.9-5.3L per 100 kilometers, offering a range of 886-959km on a full tank. During daily driving, it's essential to monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is typically done by observing the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge usually has 5 to 6 segments, and it's advisable to refuel when there are about 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. In actual refueling, the amount of fuel might exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe limit. There is additional space from the safe limit to the tank opening, which is designed to allow for fuel expansion due to temperature increases without causing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked tank capacity.
I've been driving a Nissan Sylphy for several years, with a full tank capacity of around 52 liters. When the car was new, a full tank could easily cover over 600 kilometers, with urban commuting fuel consumption hovering around 7 liters per 100 km. During summer with AC on, the range might drop to 550km, while winter sees slightly better fuel efficiency. After refueling, I always make it a habit to double-check if the fuel cap is tightly secured to prevent dust ingress – this practice has saved me from minor malfunctions a few times. On long trips, a full tank gives immense peace of mind, and the remaining mileage display proves remarkably accurate. I'd advise against frequent full refuels to save money and prolong the fuel pump's lifespan. The Sylphy's tank capacity is thoughtfully designed for daily family use, eliminating concerns about drastic fuel level fluctuations.
