What is the fuel tank capacity of the 2021 Volvo XC60 in liters?
1 Answers
The fuel tank capacity of the 2021 Volvo XC60 is 70L. Owners who purchased the 2017 Lavida can also check this information in the vehicle's configuration sheet. The 2021 Volvo XC60 comes in two models with different horsepower, both using 95-octane fuel. The 190-horsepower model has an NEDC combined fuel consumption of 7.5L/100km, allowing a range of 933km on a full tank. The 250-horsepower model has an NEDC combined fuel consumption of 7.9L/100km, with a range of 886km on a full tank. During daily driving, it's essential to monitor the remaining fuel level. This is typically observed via the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. Under normal circumstances, the fuel level is accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge usually has 5 to 6 segments, and it's advisable to refuel when only 2 segments remain to avoid running out of fuel mid-journey. During actual refueling, the fuel quantity might exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the manufacturer's specified tank capacity is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit, with additional space from the safety limit to the tank opening. This space accommodates fuel expansion due to temperature increases, preventing overflow. Filling the tank to the opening can result in a fuel quantity larger than the calibrated capacity. Other factors affecting vehicle fuel consumption include: Vehicle weight: Weight and fuel consumption are directly proportional. A 10% reduction in weight leads to a corresponding percentage decrease in fuel consumption. Vehicle aerodynamics: A lower drag coefficient significantly reduces fuel consumption, while a higher coefficient increases it proportionally. Low tire pressure: Increases friction and adhesion, leading to higher fuel consumption. Driving habits: Aggressive starts and frequent braking/accelerating significantly increase fuel consumption. Wind direction: Tailwinds reduce consumption, while headwinds increase engine workload and fuel consumption. Road conditions: Flat roads result in lower consumption, while rough or steep roads increase it. Additional electronic devices: Using accessories like air conditioning increases fuel consumption.
