What is the fuel tank capacity of the 2013 Buick Excelle in liters?
1 Answers
The fuel tank capacity of the 2013 Buick Excelle is 60 liters, as officially announced. Owners of the 2013 Buick Excelle can also check this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. A car's fuel tank must have a sufficiently large capacity. The suction pipe and return pipe should be inserted below the minimum liquid level to prevent air bubbles from forming due to suction or splashing during fuel return. The distance between the suction pipe and return pipe in the fuel tank should be as far apart as possible, and it is best to have a partition installed between them. The 2013 Excelle 1.5L manual classic model uses 92-octane fuel, with a fuel consumption of 6.6L/100km. A full tank can cover a distance of 909km. The 2013 Excelle 1.5L automatic classic model also uses 92-octane fuel, with a fuel consumption of 7.6L/100km. A full tank can cover a distance of 789km. During daily driving, it is essential to monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is usually done by observing 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 typically has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when there are only 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel added may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the manufacturer is from the bottom of the tank to the safe limit. There is additional space from the safe limit to the tank opening, which is designed to allow for fuel expansion due to temperature increases without causing overflow. If fuel is added up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked capacity. Other factors affecting fuel consumption include: Vehicle weight: There is a direct correlation between vehicle weight and fuel consumption. A 10% reduction in weight leads to a corresponding reduction in fuel consumption. Vehicle aerodynamics: A lower drag coefficient results in significantly lower fuel consumption, while a higher drag coefficient increases fuel consumption proportionally. Tire pressure: Low tire pressure increases friction and adhesion, leading to higher fuel consumption. Driving habits: Aggressive acceleration and frequent braking can significantly increase fuel consumption. Wind direction: Driving with a tailwind reduces fuel consumption, while driving against the wind increases engine workload and fuel consumption. Road conditions: Fuel consumption is lower on flat roads and higher on rough or steep roads. Additional electronic devices: Using extra equipment like air conditioning while driving increases fuel consumption.
