How to open the fuel tank cap of the Mazda Atenza?
2 Answers
To open the fuel tank cap of the Mazda Atenza, simply press the fuel tank cap switch located above the pedal. The Mazda Atenza is a mid-size sedan under FAW Mazda. Taking the Mazda Atenza 2020 Fashion Edition as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4870mm, width 1840mm, height 1445mm, with a wheelbase of 2830mm. The Mazda Atenza 2020 Fashion Edition is equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission, delivering a maximum horsepower of 158 PS, a maximum power of 116 kW, and a maximum power speed of 6400 rpm.
Opening the fuel tank cap on an ATENZA is actually super easy. I was confused when I first got the car too, but later figured out the trick. Generally, while sitting in the driver's seat, just lean slightly to your left and feel around the floor near your left knee—there's a small lever, usually a plastic handle with a fuel tank icon on it. Give it a gentle pull, and it pops open. That's how my 2017 model is set up; if yours is newer, it might be integrated into the key fob with a button. I recommend practicing at home before refueling to avoid fumbling at the gas station. Safety tip: always turn off the engine before pulling the lever to prevent accidents. The design is quite user-friendly—new drivers usually memorize the location after trying once or twice.
