What is the fuel tank capacity of the 2014 Sylphy?
2 Answers
2014 Sylphy has a 52-liter fuel tank. The size of the fuel tank is directly related to the vehicle's fuel consumption. Generally, a full tank can support a driving range of over 500 kilometers. For example, a car with a fuel consumption of 10 liters per 100 kilometers typically has a fuel tank capacity of around 60 liters. Most car manufacturers follow a principle where a full tank supports approximately 600 kilometers of driving, never less than 500 kilometers. While a large fuel tank capacity is advantageous, the most fundamental aspect is mastering fuel-saving techniques in daily driving. Under the premise of ensuring safety, avoiding sudden acceleration, sudden deceleration, and other aggressive driving actions can significantly reduce fuel consumption.
I've been driving a 2014 Nissan Sylphy for almost five years now, with a 52-liter fuel tank, which is considered above average for compact cars. I remember paying special attention to the range when I first got the car. With an urban commuting fuel consumption of 7 liters per 100 kilometers, a full tank could last about 740 kilometers, meaning I had to refuel roughly every two weeks. During daily commutes with heavy traffic, the fuel consumption could rise to 9 liters, reducing the range to under 600 kilometers. When refueling, I prefer to stop once the pump automatically shuts off. The most I've ever filled the 52-liter tank was 48 liters, leaving some room for expansion, which is better for the fuel pump. The Sylphy's fuel filler is located on the left rear side, so I always have to circle around a bit to position it correctly at the gas station, which isn't as convenient as in German cars. Overall, this tank capacity is well-balanced for family use, allowing for fewer stops on long trips.
