What is the fuel tank capacity of the Changan Eado V7?

The fuel tank capacity of the Eado V7-2016 1.6L Manual Leshang Model (China V) is 45L. It is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine and a 5-speed manual transmission (MT). The drivetrain is front-engine, front-wheel drive. The front suspension type is MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension type is torsion beam non-independent suspension. Among vehicles in the same class, the Beijing U5-2020 1.5L Manual Luxury Model (China VI) has a fuel tank capacity of 48L. 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 level. There is additional space from the safety 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 refueling amount may exceed the calibrated tank capacity. To check the remaining fuel level, the owner can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, which is marked with E and F. When the pointer is near E, it indicates low fuel, and when it is close to F, it means the fuel level is sufficient.
I am the owner of a Changan Eado V7 and have been driving it for over three years. I know very well that its fuel tank has a capacity of 52 liters. Since I commute to work every day, with a one-way distance of 40 kilometers, a full tank can easily last me the whole week, saving me the hassle of frequent refueling. The average fuel consumption is around 7L/100km, and a full tank can cover over 700 kilometers, allowing me to take my family on weekend trips to the suburbs. I recommend not waiting until the fuel gauge is nearly empty before refueling—keeping it above a quarter tank helps protect the fuel pump. With the current rise in fuel prices, filling up the 52-liter tank costs over 300 yuan, but it’s still better than making frequent trips to the gas station, especially during traffic jams when it’s quite convenient. I advise other owners to regularly check the fuel tank cap’s seal to prevent leaks or contaminants from affecting performance.
