1 Answers
Passat-2017 280TSI DSG Honor Edition has a fuel tank capacity of 69L, equipped with a 1.4L turbocharged engine and a 7-speed dry dual-clutch transmission (DCT). The drivetrain is front-engine, front-wheel drive. The front suspension is MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension is multi-link independent suspension. In the same class, the Citroen C6-2021 400THP Comfort Edition has a fuel tank capacity of 70L, while the Teana-2021 2.0L XE Fashion Edition has a fuel tank capacity of 61.3L. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the nominal capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe limit, and there is additional space from the safe limit to the tank opening. This space ensures that the fuel can expand when the temperature rises without overflowing. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual refueling amount may exceed the nominal capacity. To check the remaining fuel level, drivers can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, which is marked with E and F. When the pointer is near E, it indicates low fuel, and when it is close to F, it means the fuel level is sufficient.
