2 Answers
The fuel tank capacity of the Borgward BX5 is 60 liters, and the trunk capacity is 465 liters. It is a compact SUV launched by Borgward. The body dimensions of the Borgward BX5 are: length 4490 mm, width 1877 mm, height 1675 mm, with a wheelbase of 2685 mm, ground clearance of 186 mm, and a curb weight of 1525 kg. The Borgward BX5 is equipped with a 1.4T inline 4-cylinder turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 110 kW at 5500 rpm. It features a MacPherson strut independent front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension.
I've been driving the Borgward BX5 for over a year, and its 60-liter standard fuel tank capacity is quite considerate for daily commuters. In the city, I usually refuel once a week because the average fuel consumption is around 9L/100km. A full tank gives me over 600 kilometers of range, saving me many trips to the gas station. During winter when I use the heater frequently or in summer with the AC on, fuel consumption increases slightly, reducing the range to around 500 kilometers. I recommend regular inspection of the fuel system and avoiding low-quality gasoline, as impurities can accumulate and affect the fuel pump's lifespan. Driving smoothly and minimizing sudden braking can also help save on fuel costs.
