The BYD F0 2015 1.0L Yueku model has a fuel tank capacity of 30L. It is equipped with a 1.0L naturally aspirated engine and a 5-speed manual transmission (MT). The drivetrain is front-engine, front-wheel drive. The front suspension is a MacPherson strut type, while the rear suspension is a torsion beam with trailing arm. In the same vehicle class, the BYD F0 2015 1.0L XuanKu model also has a 30L fuel tank capacity, while the Changhe Beidouxing X5 2020 1.4L Comfort model has a 42L fuel tank capacity. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe fill level. There is additional space from the safe fill level 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 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' (Empty) and 'F' (Full). When the needle is close to 'E,' it indicates low fuel, while nearing 'F' means the tank is nearly full.
I just bought a BYD F0 and have been driving it for over half a year. Its fuel tank capacity is 30 liters. I mainly drive in the city, with a fuel consumption of about 5 liters per 100 kilometers. A full tank can last for about 500 to 600 kilometers, which is quite economical. I basically only need to refuel twice a month. If the fuel price is 7 yuan per liter, a full tank costs only 210 yuan, which is even cheaper than taking the bus. I often take friends out for fun, and the smaller fuel tank actually reduces the weight, making the car more agile. I recommend that beginners pay attention to the fuel gauge and not wait until the warning light comes on to refuel, to avoid breaking down midway. Overall, the 30-liter fuel tank is just right, suitable for urban commuting, and offers great value for money.
As someone with years of experience driving compact cars, the 30-liter fuel tank capacity of the BYD F0 is quite accurate. I remember during my first refueling, I noticed it could easily last a week of commuting, burning only about 2 liters of fuel for a round trip of 20 kilometers. Compared to my old Alto, the F0 is more space-efficient but offers similar range. A friendly reminder: don’t overfill this small car’s tank—the 30-liter capacity is designed for safety to prevent expansion and leaks. In daily driving, I check the fuel pump filter every two weeks to keep it clean and extend its lifespan. Combined with its lightweight 3.5-ton body, the 30-liter tank enhances overall fuel efficiency and ensures better stability on highways.
I have to say, the BYD F0's compact 30-liter fuel tank is quite worry-free to use. With a fuel consumption of just over 5 liters per 100 kilometers, a full tank is enough for a 100+ km weekend family trip to the suburbs, eliminating unnecessary gas station stops and parking fees. The small tank is also easier to maintain – I regularly clean dust around the fuel cap to ensure proper sealing and prevent odors from entering the cabin. Though the capacity isn't large, it complements the car's lightweight design, delivering exceptionally agile handling. Long-term fuel costs are half those of an SUV.
