What is the fuel tank capacity of the 2018 Volkswagen Bora?
2 Answers
The 2018 Volkswagen Bora comes in 8 models with a fuel tank capacity of 55 liters. It offers 2 engine options: 1.4T and 1.5L, and 3 transmission choices: dual-clutch, manual, and automatic. The engine delivers a maximum power of 96.0 kW, maximum horsepower of 131 PS, and maximum torque of 225.0 N·m. The vehicle dimensions are 4562×1793×1468 mm (length×width×height). For reference, the 2020 and 2021 Bora models have a fuel tank capacity of 50 liters, while the 2019 Bora retains the 55-liter capacity. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the manufacturer's specified capacity is measured from the tank bottom to the safe fill level, leaving some space between the safe fill level and the tank opening. This space accommodates fuel expansion due to temperature increases, preventing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening, the actual refueling amount may exceed the marked capacity. To check the remaining fuel level, drivers can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, marked with E (empty) and F (full). When the needle approaches E, it indicates low fuel, while nearing F means sufficient fuel.
Speaking of the fuel tank capacity of the Volkswagen Bora 2018 model, I remember it's 55 liters, which is quite reasonable for daily driving. I drive this car myself, and with a full tank, it can run about 600 to 700 kilometers, depending on road conditions and driving habits. In city traffic with congestion, fuel consumption is slightly higher, but it's very fuel-efficient on highways. I enjoy weekend road trips, and the 55-liter capacity is just right to avoid frequent refueling stops—filling up every two weeks is enough. When refueling, I prefer using official Sinopec gas stations to avoid damaging the fuel system with low-quality fuel. The fuel tank is located under the chassis, so you need to be careful not to scrape it when driving over rough roads. Regular maintenance of the fuel system is essential, such as cleaning the fuel filter to extend its lifespan. Overall, this design balances practicality and economy, making it suitable for drivers who enjoy long-distance trips.
