What is the fuel tank capacity of the 8th generation Accord 2.4 in liters?

The fuel tank capacity of the 8th generation Accord 2.4 is 47 liters. Among vehicles in the same class, the 2021 facelifted Excelle has a fuel tank capacity of 44 liters, while the 2022 classic Sylphy has 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 any oil leakage at the fuel pipe joints and switches. For fuel tank caps equipped with air valves and vapor 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. If the owner wants to check the remaining fuel level, they can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, which is marked with E and F. When the needle is close to E, it indicates that the fuel is almost empty, and when it is near F, it indicates that the fuel level is sufficient.
I remember when I drove the eighth-generation Accord 2.4, the fuel tank capacity was around 70 liters. For daily commuting in the city, a full tank could last over 400 kilometers, while on the highway it was more fuel-efficient, reaching around 600 kilometers. Refueling usually cost about 700-800 RMB to fill up—not too expensive but not cheap either. The key is to maintain it well, like making sure the fuel cap is tightly closed each time to prevent dust from entering, and regularly cleaning the fuel filler neck to avoid impurities affecting the fuel pump. I’ve driven this car for several years and feel the fuel tank design is quite reliable, with no issues like leaks or deformation. It’s very convenient for long trips, as fewer stops for refueling save time. Overall, the 70-liter capacity is sufficient for both daily commutes and road trips, but I’d advise new owners to remember that fuel efficiency can vary based on driving habits—gentler driving can extend the range.
