What is the fuel tank capacity of the Audi Q3 in liters?
2 Answers
Currently, there are 6 available models of the Audi Q3 on sale. Among them, the quattro version has a fuel tank capacity of 62.5 liters, while other versions have a fuel tank capacity of 60 liters. This data is published by the automobile manufacturer, and owners who have purchased an Audi Q3 can also check it on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The fuel grade for the Audi Q3 is 95 octane. The quattro version has a fuel consumption of 7.5L per 100 kilometers, allowing a full tank to travel up to 800KM. Other versions have a fuel consumption of 6.7-6.8L per 100 kilometers, enabling a full tank to travel between 882-896KM. During daily driving, it is essential to always monitor the remaining fuel in the tank. This is typically observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will accurately reflect on the gauge. The fuel gauge on the dashboard usually has 5 to 6 segments. It is advisable to refuel when there are about 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel might exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe limit. There is additional space from the safe limit to the tank opening, which is designed to accommodate fuel expansion due to temperature increases without causing overflow. If fuel is added up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel filled may exceed the calibrated tank capacity.
As an Audi Q3 owner, I frequently drive this car which has a fuel tank capacity of 60 liters. For city commuting, this allows me to cover 500-700 kilometers with an average fuel consumption of about 8L/100km. I usually prefer to use 95-octane gasoline—though more expensive, it better protects the engine, and I visit a PetroChina gas station once a week. I remember once on a long trip from Beijing to Qingdao, after filling up, I only needed to stop once at a service area to refuel, which was very time-efficient. I recommend not waiting until the fuel gauge warning light comes on to refuel, as this can affect the fuel pump's lifespan. Additionally, the fuel tank cap is automatic, making it safe and convenient, unlike older models with manual caps that are easy to forget. Overall, the 60-liter design is thoughtful—compact and space-efficient, ideal for daily family use. If you're considering buying a Q3, this feature is praiseworthy. Maintaining the fuel tank is simple; just check the pipelines during regular maintenance.
