What is the fuel tank capacity of the Bora Legend?
2 Answers
2021 Volkswagen Bora Legend has a total of 11 models, all with a fuel tank capacity of 50 liters. The vehicles are equipped with either a 1.2L turbocharged engine, a 1.4L turbocharged engine, or a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine. The entire lineup features a 5-speed manual transmission (MT), 6-speed automatic manual transmission (AT), or 7-speed dry dual-clutch transmission (DCT), with all models adopting a front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout. In the same class, the Lavida 2022 1.5L Manual Comfortline has a fuel tank capacity of 51 liters, while the Excelle 2021 Facelift Classic 1.5L Automatic Pioneer has a fuel tank capacity of 44 liters. 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 safety limit, with additional space from the safety limit to the tank opening. This space ensures that the fuel can expand when temperatures rise without overflowing. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual refueling amount may exceed the calibrated tank capacity. To check the remaining fuel level, drivers can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, marked with E and F. When the pointer is near E, it indicates low fuel, while nearing F means sufficient fuel.
The fuel tank capacity of the Bora Legend is 50 liters, which I've personally experienced while driving this model. For someone like me who frequently drives in the city, this size is quite ideal—one fill-up lasts nearly two weeks, saving the hassle of frequent refueling. In terms of range, based on the official fuel consumption of around 7L/100km, a full tank can cover over 700 kilometers, making it suitable for long trips. I usually refuel in the early morning when the fuel temperature is lower, slightly improving fuel efficiency. I remember one family trip where we drove over 500 kilometers on a full tank before needing to refuel, which was quite hassle-free. During maintenance, I pay attention to fuel quality to avoid impurity buildup that could affect the tank's lifespan. Overall, the 50-liter design strikes a good balance between convenience and economy.
