1 Answers
The fuel tank capacity of the 2015 Passat is 70 liters, which is the officially announced data. Owners who have purchased the 2015 Passat can also check this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The 2015 Passat requires 95-octane fuel, with a fuel consumption ranging from 6.7 to 9.6 liters per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 729 to 1,045 kilometers. During daily driving, it is necessary to pay attention to the remaining fuel level in the tank. The fuel level is usually observed through 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 may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the car manufacturer is from the bottom of the tank to the safe limit, and there is still some space from the safe limit to the tank opening. This space is reserved to allow the fuel to expand when the temperature rises without overflowing the tank. If fuel is added up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked tank capacity.
