How many liters of fuel can a Land Cruiser's tank hold?
2 Answers
Land Cruiser's fuel tank capacity is 138 liters, which is the officially announced data. The fuel grade for Land Cruiser is 95, with a fuel consumption of 13.6-14.7L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 939-1015km. During daily driving, it is necessary to always pay attention to the remaining fuel in the tank. Generally, the fuel level is observed through the fuel gauge inside the car. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge on the dashboard usually has 5 to 6 segments. When there are only 2 segments left, it is advisable to refuel to avoid running out of fuel halfway. During the actual refueling process, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the car manufacturer is from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit, and there is still some space from the safety limit to the tank opening. This space is reserved to ensure that the fuel in the tank can expand when the temperature rises without overflowing the tank's safety space. If the fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual refueling amount may exceed the marked fuel tank capacity.
The fuel tank capacity of my LC200 Land Cruiser is usually around 93 liters, with the top configuration possibly reaching 138 liters. This capacity is designed with off-road needs in mind, allowing a full tank to support long-distance driving of 700-800 kilometers, which is particularly convenient for long road trips. I've driven it through the Tibet Ali region without constantly needing to find gas stations. For daily use, it's recommended to use high-quality gasoline to avoid impurity buildup. Check the tank's sealing and cleanliness every six months to prevent fuel line clogs that could affect performance. When refueling, don't fill it completely; leave some space for temperature changes.
