What is the fuel tank capacity of the 9.5th generation Accord?
1 Answers
The fuel tank capacity of the 9.5th generation Accord varies depending on the configuration: 56L and 48.5L. The hybrid version has a 48.5L fuel tank, while the 260TURBO version has a 56L fuel tank. The 260TURBO model is equipped with a CVT continuously variable transmission and features a turbocharged intake system. The hybrid model comes with an E-CVT continuously variable transmission and a naturally aspirated intake system. Among vehicles in the same class, the Regal has a fuel tank capacity of 56L, the Camry has a 60L fuel tank, and the Teana has a 61.3L fuel tank. During the actual refueling process, the amount of fuel may exceed the nominal capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit, and there is additional space from the safety limit to the tank opening. This extra space is designed to allow for fuel expansion when temperatures rise, preventing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the nominal tank capacity. To check the remaining fuel level, drivers can look at 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 low fuel, while proximity to F means the fuel level is sufficient.
