What is the fuel tank capacity of the Changan Unit?
2 Answers
The 2022 Changan Unit models all have a fuel tank capacity of 55 liters. The entire lineup is equipped with either a 1.5-liter or 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, paired with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission (DCT) or an 8-speed automatic transmission (AT). All models feature front-wheel drive. In the same vehicle class, the 2021 Haval Big Dog has a fuel tank capacity of 61 liters, the 2022 Changan CS75 PLUS has a 58-liter tank, and the 2021 Beijing Hyundai ix35 also has a 58-liter tank. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the manufacturer's specified fuel tank capacity is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit, with additional space from the safety limit to the tank opening. This extra space allows for fuel expansion when temperatures rise, preventing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount may exceed the specified capacity. To check the remaining fuel level, drivers can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, marked with E (empty) and F (full). When the needle is near E, it indicates low fuel, while proximity to F means the tank is nearly full.
I've been driving the Changan UNI-T for almost a year now, with a fuel tank capacity of 55 liters. My daily commute is about 50 kilometers, and a full tank lasts me over ten days, so I hardly ever worry about refueling. Last week, I took my family on a trip to the mountains. On the highway, one full tank got me 650 kilometers, and I only had to refuel once along the way, saving a lot of time and avoiding the hassle of waiting in line. Such a large fuel tank is perfect for someone like me who loves traveling. It gives me a strong sense of security on long drives, and the spacious interior, combined with this range, truly makes the journey relaxing and comfortable. When I bought the car, I prioritized range, and the 55-liter tank hasn’t disappointed. On occasional highway trips, the fuel consumption drops to 7.5L/100km, which is quite economical. I’d recommend it to friends who enjoy road trips—it’ll save you both time and effort.
