The fuel tank capacity of the 2016 Trumpchi GS4 is 50 liters. The powertrain has been upgraded from the previous generation's 4A15M1 to the 4A15J1, with the main change being the switch from multi-point fuel injection to direct fuel injection, while also easily meeting the China VI emission standards. The fuel tank capacity of the Trumpchi GS4 2017 200T manual two-wheel drive comfort version is 50 liters, and the Trumpchi GS4 2018 200T manual two-wheel drive comfort version also has a fuel tank capacity of 50 liters. During the actual refueling process, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated volume. This is because the fuel tank volume marked by the car manufacturer is the volume from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit, and there is still some space from the safety limit to the tank opening. This space is reserved to ensure that the fuel in the tank can expand when the temperature rises without overflowing the tank's safety space. If the fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual refueling amount will be larger than the calibrated fuel tank volume. If the owner wants to know the remaining fuel level, they can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the dashboard, which is marked with E and F. When the pointer is close to E, it means the fuel is almost empty, and when it is close to F, it means the fuel level is sufficient.
I recently drove a 2016 Trumpchi GS4, and I clearly remember its fuel tank capacity is 55 liters. As an owner, I find this size quite moderate - for city commuting, one refuel per week is sufficient. With an average fuel consumption of around 8L/100km, a full tank can cover nearly 700 kilometers, which is quite worry-free. For weekend road trips to farther destinations, you don't need to worry about frequent gas station stops, allowing you to fully enjoy the journey. Regarding maintenance, I recommend regular inspections of the fuel pump and fuel lines to prevent leaks or blockages. When fuel prices rise, filling up the 55L tank costs about 400+ yuan, which is more economical than vehicles with larger tanks. Overall, this capacity is perfectly adequate for daily use and quite convenient.
