What is the fuel tank capacity of the 2018 Geely New Vision?
3 Answers
The 2018 Geely New Vision has 5 models, all with a fuel tank capacity of 50 liters. The vehicle is equipped with a 1.5L 109 horsepower L4 engine, and all models come with a 5-speed manual transmission (MT). All models feature a front-engine, front-wheel-drive configuration. The Emgrand models from 2011 to 2017 also have a fuel tank capacity of 50 liters. Fuel tank maintenance is as follows: Drain accumulated water and sediment from the fuel tank, and check for oil leaks at pipe joints and switches. For fuel tank caps equipped with air valves and steam valves, ensure the ventilation holes are clear. The filter screen at the fuel filler inlet should remain intact to prevent impurities from entering the tank and clogging the fuel lines. The sealing gasket on the fuel filler cap should also be intact to prevent fuel spillage while driving. Methods to open the fuel tank: Mechanical key opening: Typically found on rugged off-road vehicles, this method is less common in modern family cars due to its relative complexity. In-car switch: The location of the in-car fuel tank switch varies by model. It may be on the floor near the driver's seat, on the left front door panel, or on the center console, usually marked with a fuel pump icon. Note that using the in-car switch can sometimes lead to forgetting to turn off the engine before refueling, so always remember to turn off the engine first. Press-to-open mechanism: This is currently the most convenient method. The driver simply parks the car, and the fuel attendant can press the tank door to open it for refueling. However, when not refueling, ensure the central locking system is engaged to prevent unauthorized access to the fuel tank.
I've been driving the 2018 New Vision for over two years now, and this car has a 45-liter fuel tank. I remember noticing this issue when I first refueled after picking up the car - the pump showed it filled just over 44 liters before automatically stopping. At the time, I wondered why it wasn't the full 45 liters? Later I learned all car fuel tanks are designed with some extra capacity to allow for fuel expansion. For daily commuting in the city, fuel consumption is around 7 liters per 100km, and a full tank can last just over 600 km. It's more fuel-efficient on highways - I've managed over 700 km on a single tank at most. Don't wait until the fuel light comes on to refuel, as the fuel pump relies on gasoline for cooling. I usually refuel when there's about a quarter tank left, which is better for the car. I think the tank size is just right - not too big, not too small.
As a family car owner, I found that the 2018 Geely New Vision has a fuel tank capacity of 45 liters. This capacity is quite practical. With a 20-kilometer round trip between my home and workplace, a full tank of 92-octane gasoline lasts about three weeks. The refueling cost is just over 300 yuan, which is more economical compared to some joint-venture cars in the same price range. Once, I specifically tested its range on a long-distance trip—after filling up in Hangzhou, I drove round-trip to Suzhou and still had two bars of fuel left. It's normal to hear a slight hissing sound when unscrewing the fuel cap; this is the pressure balance valve in the fuel tank working. The plastic fuel tank design is quite reasonable, being lighter and safer than old-fashioned metal tanks. Remember, it's advisable not to fill the tank completely before the first maintenance, as fuel tank pressure control is crucial during the break-in period.
