Changan Shenqi T-20 2021 1.5L Wealth Edition Basic Single-Row Composite Panel has a fuel tank capacity of 40L. The vehicle is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine and a 5-speed manual transmission (MT). The drive type is mid-engine, rear-wheel drive. The front suspension type is leaf spring, and the rear suspension type is also leaf spring. In the same vehicle class, the Changan Shenqi T-20 2021 1.5L Wealth Edition Basic Single-Row DAM15KR also has a fuel tank capacity of 40L. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the automobile manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe limit level. There is additional space from the safe limit level to the tank opening, which is reserved 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 be greater than the calibrated fuel tank capacity. To check the remaining fuel level, the owner can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, marked with E and F. When the pointer is near E, it indicates low fuel, and when it is close to F, it indicates sufficient fuel.
The fuel tank capacity of the Changan Shenqi T20 is approximately 43 liters, which is quite common among light trucks. I've been using this vehicle for several years, mainly for transportation in suburban areas. A full tank can last around 350 to 400 kilometers, depending on road conditions and load. It's advisable not to always fill the tank to the brim; leave some space to prevent fuel evaporation or spillage. Before long trips, check if the fuel cap is sealed properly to avoid contaminants entering and affecting the fuel system. It's recommended to inspect the fuel tank every 20,000 kilometers to remove sediment and prolong its lifespan. Additionally, choose reputable gas stations to avoid damage to the engine from low-quality fuel. Overall, this capacity is economical and practical, reducing the need for frequent refueling and saving both time and money.
