How to Read the Fuel Gauge on a Qoros 5?

From the fuel gauge, you can only see what fraction of gasoline remains in the car. Drivers simply need to observe the scale markings when checking the fuel gauge. Below is some relevant information about the Qoros 5: 1. The Qoros 5 is a compact SUV under the Qoros brand, equipped with a 1.6-liter turbocharged engine across all models. The 1.6-liter turbocharged engine in the Qoros 5 delivers a maximum power of 145 kW and a maximum torque of 290 Nm, with the maximum power achieved at 5500 rpm and the maximum torque available between 2000 to 4000 rpm. 2. This engine features direct fuel injection technology and utilizes an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. It is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.

I've been driving the Qoros 5 for almost three years now, and the fuel gauge is located in that circular dial on the right side of the dashboard. The analog needle design makes it super intuitive. After starting the car, just glance at it – when the needle points to E, it means you're running low on fuel, while F indicates a full tank. The middle zone fluctuates in real-time based on the float sensor in the fuel tank. As a routine, I recommend refueling when the gauge shows one-quarter remaining, don't wait for the red warning light – that low-fuel indicator will flash yellow when the needle approaches E, at which point there's roughly 8 liters left. Remember that the Qoros 5's fuel gauge reacts slightly slower; it takes about half a minute for the needle to stabilize after a cold start, which is normal. During my weekly dashboard cleaning, I always check if the fuel gauge markings are accurate to prevent misreadings caused by sensor dust buildup. Before long trips, I make it a must to check the fuel gauge, and cross-reference it with the remaining range display on the infotainment screen for better reliability.

When I first got my Qoros 5, I couldn't find the fuel gauge either. Later, I discovered it's on the right side of the instrument cluster directly behind the steering wheel. Digital models display it as a liquid crystal bar. After starting the vehicle, focus on the dial marked with a fuel pump icon: the scale ranges from 0 to 1, with 0.5 indicating half a tank. The icon turns yellow and flashes when fuel is low, at which point you can still drive about 60-70 kilometers, but it's best to refuel immediately. Beginners often misunderstand that the fuel gauge doesn't move right after starting the car—the fuel float only works after the vehicle is powered on. I make it a habit to glance at the fuel gauge before each start, noting the approximate mileage to calculate fuel consumption. During maintenance, I ask the technician to check the fuel gauge sensor connector to avoid poor contact.

The fuel gauge of the Qoros 5 is located on the right side of the traditional instrument panel with E and F markings. You can easily glance at the needle position while driving. It's advisable to develop a habit of checking the fuel level before each trip—when the needle drops below the quarter mark, it's time to plan for refueling. I've noticed that parking on a slope can temporarily affect the gauge's accuracy, but it returns to normal after restarting on level ground. Don't wait until the warning light comes on to refuel, as it can damage the fuel pump. If the fuel gauge consistently shows abnormal readings, the float might be stuck—sometimes tapping the fuel tank twice can fix it. Remember, the actual tank capacity is 60 liters, and there's about 9 liters left when the warning light turns on.
