What is the fuel tank capacity of the C260?
1 Answers
The latest Mercedes-Benz C260 has a fuel tank capacity of 66L. This is the official data. Owners of the latest Mercedes-Benz C260 can also check this information in the car's configuration sheet. The latest Mercedes-Benz C260 comes in two models with different fuel consumption, but both use 95-octane fuel. The WLTC combined fuel consumption for the Mercedes facelifted C260L Sport model is 6.6L per 100km, and a full tank can cover a distance of 1000km. The WLTC combined fuel consumption for the Mercedes C260L Night Sport model is 6.35L per 100km, and a full tank can cover a distance of 1039km. During daily driving, it is necessary to pay attention to the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is usually observed through the fuel gauge inside the car. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge typically has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when there are 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the car manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe limit, and there is still some space from the safe limit to the tank opening. This space is reserved to allow for fuel expansion when temperatures rise, preventing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the calibrated tank capacity. Other factors that affect a car's fuel consumption include: Vehicle weight: There is a direct correlation between weight and fuel consumption. A 10% reduction in weight can lead to a corresponding reduction in fuel consumption. Car aerodynamics: A lower drag coefficient results in noticeably lower fuel consumption, while a higher drag coefficient increases fuel consumption proportionally. Low tire pressure: This increases tire friction and adhesion, leading to higher fuel consumption. Driving habits: Aggressive acceleration and frequent braking can significantly increase fuel consumption. Wind direction: Driving with a tailwind reduces fuel consumption, while driving against a headwind increases engine workload and fuel consumption. Road conditions: Driving on flat roads results in lower fuel consumption, while driving on rough or steep roads increases it. Use of additional electronic devices: Using extra equipment like air conditioning while driving increases the rate of fuel consumption.
