What are the safe capacity and actual capacity of a fuel tank?
1 Answers
The rated volume stated in the vehicle's user manual is the safe capacity, and it is normal for the actual capacity to be 10% larger than the rated volume. There are three methods to reduce fuel consumption in vehicles: Minimize the vehicle's weight: Keep the interior as simple as possible and avoid carrying unnecessary items, as every additional kilogram of load increases fuel consumption by 1%; Avoid excessive modifications: Adding spoilers, protective covers, or wings can disrupt the original aerodynamic design of the vehicle, increasing wind resistance and consuming extra fuel. Modifying lighting systems can also increase electrical load, leading to unnecessary fuel consumption; Develop good driving habits: Avoid sudden acceleration, driving at high speeds in low gears, prolonged idling, frequent lane changes or braking. Instead, aim for smooth starts, steady-speed driving, and reduced braking.
