What is the fuel tank capacity of the BAIC BJ40?

The fuel tank capacity of the BJ40 is 75 liters, as officially announced. The 2022 BJ40 2.0T automatic four-wheel-drive official edition and automatic four-wheel-drive HuanTa champion edition require 92-octane fuel, with a fuel consumption of 9.9L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 757km. The 2022 BJ40 2.3T automatic four-wheel-drive excellence edition requires 95-octane fuel, with a fuel consumption of 11.5L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 652km. During daily driving, it is necessary to always pay attention to the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is usually observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. 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. When the fuel gauge shows only 2 segments remaining, it is advisable to refuel to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may 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 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 calibrated tank capacity.
I remember the last time I took the BAIC BJ40 out for a trip, its fuel tank capacity was around 75 liters. This car is quite spacious, and filling up the tank for long-distance drives gives a great sense of security. In the city, I can usually make it last about a week, and if I drive conservatively, it can cover over 500 kilometers. However, during off-road driving, the fuel consumption is higher, so I find myself visiting gas stations more frequently. It's advisable to choose reputable gas stations to ensure clean fuel and avoid impurities clogging the fuel supply system. When I bought the car, the salesperson mentioned that there weren't significant changes in the fuel tank capacity across different years and models, and it's generally stable at this capacity. The range is really unbeatable. After using it for two years, I feel that the 75-liter size is a lifesaver for those who love road trips. You don't have to worry about breaking down halfway; just enjoy the adventure to the fullest.
