What is the fuel tank capacity of the BMW 523 in liters?
2 Answers
BMW 523 has a fuel tank capacity of 70L. Here are some related introductions: 1. BMW: BMW, the full Chinese name being Bavarian Motor Works Co., Ltd., is a German luxury automobile brand. BMW's vehicle series include the I, X, Z, and pure number models, as well as the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 series, and the M series, which is an improved version based on these series. 2. Fuel tank: A fuel tank is a container for storing fuel in aircraft or automobiles, and it is a specialized container in hydraulic systems for storing hydraulic oil or hydraulic fluid. Fuel tanks can be divided into two types: open tanks and closed tanks. The fuel tank must have a sufficiently large volume; the suction pipe and return pipe should be inserted below the lowest liquid level to prevent air suction and oil return splashing, which can create bubbles.
As a veteran driver with decades of experience, I remember the BMW 523 typically had a fuel tank capacity of around 70 liters. This was quite common in the E60 series models, featuring a well-balanced design that allowed a full tank to cover approximately 700 kilometers—perfect for long-distance trips. In terms of fuel consumption, stop-and-go city driving might push it up to 10 liters per 100 kilometers, while smooth highway cruising could bring it down to around 8 liters, naturally extending the range. For refueling tips, it's best to stick to reputable gas stations using 95-octane fuel and avoid cheap, low-quality fuels that could harm the engine. Also, don’t wait until the fuel light comes on to refill, as this may damage the fuel pump. Regular maintenance, like cleaning dust around the fuel cap area, is essential to prevent water accumulation and corrosion. The 70-liter capacity strikes a perfect balance for a midsize sedan—neither wasting space nor compromising long-distance comfort. Among the cars I’ve driven, few achieve this equilibrium, showcasing BMW’s thoughtful approach to practicality.
