The fuel tank capacity of the 2018 Magotan 330 Luxury Edition is 66L. The vehicle is equipped with a 1.8T 180 horsepower L4 engine, and all models in the series use a 7-speed dry dual-clutch transmission (MT). All models in the series feature a front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout. All Magotan 330 Luxury Edition models have a fuel tank capacity of 66 liters. 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 remain intact to prevent impurities from entering the fuel tank during refueling and clogging the fuel lines. The sealing gasket on the fuel filler cap should also be intact to prevent fuel from spilling out while driving. Methods to open the fuel tank: Mechanical key opening: This method is typically seen in some rugged off-road vehicles. Most modern family cars do not use mechanical keys for opening the fuel tank due to the relative complexity of the process. In-car switch method: The location of the in-car fuel tank switch varies by model. It may be on the floor to the left of the driver's seat, on the left front door panel, or on the center console, usually marked with a fuel pump icon. However, note that the in-car switch can easily lead to forgetting to turn off the engine before refueling, so drivers should always remember to turn off the engine before refueling. Press-to-open method: The press-to-open fuel tank door is currently the most convenient method. The driver only needs to park the car, and the fuel attendant can press to open the fuel tank for refueling. However, when not parked for refueling, drivers should always lock the central control to prevent the fuel tank cap from being opened.
I've driven this car, the 18 Passat 330 Luxury Edition has a fuel tank capacity of 66 liters, which is quite good among similar models. On the highway, it can basically last over 600 kilometers without refueling, and the combined fuel consumption for regular city driving is around 8 liters per 100 kilometers, so one refill per week is sufficient. Remember not to wait until the fuel gauge light comes on to refuel, as that can easily damage the fuel pump. I usually refill when there's about one-third left. During regular maintenance, ask the mechanic to check the fuel tank cap's sealing to ensure there are no leaks. The advantage of a large fuel tank is that it reduces the hassle of frequent trips to the gas station, especially during long-distance travel—it's much more convenient. My experience is that driving from Shanghai to Nanjing doesn't require a stop in between, saving a lot of time.
