To open the fuel tank cap of the Buick Excelle: 1. Press the fuel tank switch button on the driver's door; 2. Go to the fuel tank cap and rotate it counterclockwise. Taking the 2018 Buick Excelle as an example, it is a compact car with body dimensions of 4609mm in length, 1798mm in width, and 1486mm in height, a wheelbase of 2640mm, a fuel tank capacity of 44 liters, and a trunk capacity of 400 liters. The 2018 Buick Excelle is equipped with a 1.0T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 125 PS, a maximum power of 92 kW, and a maximum torque of 170 Nm, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission.
As a frequent driver of the Buick Excelle, I always find opening the fuel tank cap quite convenient. It's not the old-fashioned type that requires a key. You just need to locate a small lever near the bottom of the driver's side door, give it a gentle pull, and with a 'click,' the cap pops open. The key is that the vehicle must be in the unlocked state; it won't open if locked. This design is for anti-theft convenience. After refueling, simply press the cap back to lock it. If it feels off, like the lever is stuck, it might be due to dust buildup—just use a hairdryer or a quick clean. Making a habit of checking the switch position before driving can save you from mid-trip refueling hassles. Also, if it's frozen in winter, don't force it; wait for the car to warm up before trying again. Mastering these small details makes daily driving much smoother.
