How many liters is a full tank of gas for a Corolla?

Corolla has a fuel tank capacity of 50 liters. The fuel tank is a container for storing fuel in a vehicle, specifically designed to hold hydraulic oil or hydraulic fluid in hydraulic systems. Taking the 2021 Toyota Corolla as an example, it belongs to the compact car category with body dimensions of: length 4635mm, width 1780mm, height 1455mm, and a wheelbase of 2700mm. The fuel tank capacity is 50 liters. The 2021 Toyota Corolla is equipped with a 1.2T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 116PS, maximum power of 85kW, maximum torque of 185Nm, and is paired with a 10-speed continuously variable transmission.
I've been driving a 2012 Corolla for five years, and its fuel tank is 55 liters. The older models actually had smaller tanks, with the 2008 generation only holding 50 liters. I remember when I first got the car, filling up the tank cost just over 300 yuan, and it could run over 500 kilometers for city commuting. Once on a highway trip from Beijing to Jinan, the entire 600-kilometer journey didn't require a refuel, proving that a smaller tank can actually save on fuel costs. Nowadays, the newer models have even larger tanks, but they require 95-octane gasoline, unlike our older cars that can run on 92.
As a female car owner, the small fuel tank is the most annoying thing! My 2021 Corolla Sport has a labeled fuel tank capacity of 43 liters. Every time the fuel light comes on and I fill up with 92-octane gasoline, it only costs around 300 yuan. With a weekly commute of 300 kilometers, I have to refuel twice, and the gas station queues are a nightmare. My best friend's Sylphy has a 47-liter tank, allowing her to drive 70-80 kilometers more than me. However, the Corolla is fuel-efficient—I've calculated it at 6.2 liters per 100 kilometers. Having a small tank just forces me to take more breaks and stretch my legs.
