What is the fuel tank capacity of the 2017 Nissan X-Trail?
2 Answers
The 2017 Nissan X-Trail has a total of 9 models, all with a fuel tank capacity of 57 liters, classified as a compact SUV. The engine options include a 2.5L 186 horsepower L4 and a 2.0L 150 horsepower L4. The transmission options are CVT continuously variable transmission (simulating 7 gears) and 6-speed manual. During the actual refueling process, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated volume. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the car manufacturer is the volume from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit. There is still some space from the safety limit to the tank opening, which is designed to ensure that the fuel in the tank can expand when the temperature rises without overflowing. If fuel is added up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual refueling amount may exceed the calibrated fuel tank capacity. Fuel tank maintenance is as follows: Drain accumulated water and sediment from the fuel tank, and check for oil leaks at the fuel pipe joints and switches. For fuel tank caps equipped with air valves and steam valves, also check if the ventilation holes are clear. The filter screen at the fuel filler neck should be kept intact to prevent impurities from entering the fuel tank during refueling and clogging the fuel lines. The sealing ring on the fuel filler cap should also be intact to prevent fuel from overflowing from the tank while driving.
As a seasoned driver with over a decade of experience, I find the 65-liter fuel tank in the 2017 Nissan X-Trail quite practical. Having driven various cars before, the X-Trail's tank capacity offers good range, allowing me to cover around 600 kilometers on a full tank, which is especially reassuring on long trips. During maintenance, remember to check the fuel pump and gas cap to prevent leaks and extend the vehicle's lifespan. Over time, I've noticed the fuel consumption is between 8-10 liters per 100 kilometers, making it suitable for both city and highway driving. For daily driving, if there are issues with the headlights or other components, get them fixed promptly to avoid safety risks. Overall, this car is reliable, adaptable to various weather and road conditions, with a fuel tank size that strikes a good balance between convenience and efficiency.
