What is the fuel tank capacity of the A4?
2 Answers
Currently, there are 17 models of the Audi A4 available for sale. The quattro version has a fuel tank capacity of 58 liters, while other versions have a capacity of 56 liters. This data is provided by the car manufacturer, and owners of the Audi A4 can also check it on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The Audi A4 requires 95-octane fuel, with a fuel consumption of 6.1 to 7.3 liters per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 795 to 918 kilometers. During daily driving, it is important to always pay attention to the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is usually observed through the fuel gauge inside the car. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge typically has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when there are only 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the car manufacturer is the volume from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit. There is additional space from the safety limit to the tank opening, which 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 marked tank capacity.
I've been driving an Audi A4 for quite some years. Its fuel tank capacity is usually 54 or 58 liters, depending on the year and engine model. My 2019 model has a 55-liter tank, which is quite well-designed. A full tank can last about 450 kilometers in the city and easily 600 kilometers on the highway. It's especially worry-free for long trips with fewer refueling stops, but you need to watch out for fuel price fluctuations—I usually use an app to find cheaper gas stations. The fuel filler neck tends to get dusty sometimes, so regular cleaning is necessary to avoid oil leaks. As for fuel consumption, it averages around 9 liters per 100 kilometers, but it spikes quickly in heavy traffic—at that point, even a large tank capacity doesn’t help much. I’d suggest choosing based on your daily needs rather than just going for a bigger tank; overall fuel economy is more important. All in all, the Audi A4 handles this aspect quite thoughtfully.
