What is the fuel tank capacity of the 7th-generation Camry?
3 Answers
The fuel tank capacity of the 7th-generation Camry is 70 liters. The fuel tank consists of the following components: fuel tank cap, baffle, fuel gauge sensor, fuel inlet and return pipes, fuel filler neck, and vent. Taking the 2013 7th-generation Camry as an example, it is a mid-size sedan with the following dimensions: length 4825mm, width 1825mm, height 1480mm, wheelbase 2775mm, minimum ground clearance 159mm, and curb weight 1430kg. The 2013 7th-generation Camry is equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 148PS, maximum torque of 190Nm, and maximum power of 109kW.
As a 7th-generation Toyota Camry owner, I find the 65-liter fuel tank capacity quite practical. Having driven this car for nearly five years with a daily commute of about 40 kilometers, I only need to refuel once a week, saving me the hassle of waiting in line. For long trips, like driving from Shanghai to Nanjing, a full tank gets me there without needing to stop midway, which is incredibly convenient. With an average fuel consumption of 7 liters per 100 kilometers, a full tank gives me around 930 kilometers of range, varying with road conditions. Occasionally, the fuel gauge isn't accurate, so I make it a habit to manually record fuel levels every 1,000 kilometers as a precaution. During maintenance, the technician mentioned the fuel tank material is durable, and mine has never leaked; cleaning is also straightforward. Compared to the 8th generation's 70-liter tank, it's slightly smaller, but this generation's lighter weight means overall range isn't significantly different. Driving smoothly helps conserve fuel, and I recommend regularly checking the fuel cap seal to avoid contaminants.
I have studied cars for many years. The 7th generation Camry has a standard fuel tank capacity of 65 liters or 17.3 gallons, which is a reasonable design. Paired with a 2.5L engine, its fuel consumption is moderate, allowing for approximately 480 kilometers in the city and over 700 kilometers on the highway, with stable range. The fuel tank is positioned near the rear axle, which does not affect handling balance and makes driving smooth. During the model change, the tank was reduced from the 6th generation's 70 liters, but weight reduction and technological improvements resulted in similar overall fuel efficiency. I have tested it several times, and when filled to the limit, it can run nearly 1,000 kilometers, but monitoring the fuel gauge is essential to avoid running out of gas. Safety details include a good anti-theft design for the fuel cap, reducing evaporation pollution. For daily driving, it's important to choose 95-octane fuel to avoid carbon buildup. Maintenance costs are not high, and it can last for ten years without issues.
