What is the fuel tank capacity of the Buick GL6 in liters?

The 2021 Buick GL6 comes in 3 models, all with a fuel tank capacity of 45 liters. The 2021 Buick GL6 is equipped with a 1.3-liter turbocharged engine and an automatic transmission (AT). All models feature front-wheel drive. In the same vehicle class, the 2020 Aifei F9 2.0L Manual Standard has a fuel tank capacity of 65 liters. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit. There is additional space from the safety limit to the tank opening, which is designed to allow for fuel expansion due to temperature increases without causing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked tank capacity. To check the remaining fuel level, drivers can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, which is marked with E and F. When the needle is near E, it indicates low fuel, while proximity to F indicates sufficient fuel.
I remember the Buick GL6 has a fuel tank capacity of 45 liters, which is just right for me. Driving in the city, a full tank can last over 500 kilometers, basically enough for two weeks of commuting. On long-distance trips, the fuel consumption drops to around 7 liters per 100 kilometers on the highway, extending the range to nearly 600 kilometers. However, when queuing at gas stations, I often think: if it were just 5 liters larger, it would be perfect. With current fuel prices not being cheap, a full tank costs less than 400 yuan, but on highways, I have to frequently stop at service areas. The Odyssey in the same class does have a more comfortable 55-liter tank, but for the GL6 as a compact MPV, the 45-liter tank paired with its 1.3T fuel efficiency is completely sufficient for family use.
