What is the fuel tank capacity of the Changan Eado XT?
2 Answers
The fuel tank capacity of the Changan Eado XT is 53 liters, as officially announced. Owners who have purchased the Changan Eado XT can also check this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The Changan Eado XT requires 92-octane gasoline, with a fuel consumption of 6.0 to 6.4L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of approximately 828 to 883 kilometers. During daily driving, it is essential to monitor the remaining fuel in the tank regularly. This is typically done by observing the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. Under normal circumstances, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge usually has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when only 2 segments remain to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel added 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 tank capacity.
I've been driving the Changan Eado XT for almost three years now, so I'm particularly qualified to talk about its fuel tank capacity. The car comes standard with a large 52-liter fuel tank, which translates to over 600 kilometers on a full tank - perfect for commuters like me who travel between cities daily. Back when I drove smaller cars, I was constantly looking for gas stations every few days, but now with this tank, a Monday fill-up usually lasts me until the weekend. I remember one long-distance trip from Xi'an to Chengdu where I only needed to refuel once along the way - incredibly convenient. The fuel filler cap is located on the left side of the body, making refueling easy, though it's important not to overfill and leave some space for the fuel pump. While using AC in city driving does consume more fuel, the large tank still delivers impressive overall range.
