2 Answers
The fuel tank capacity of the Citroen C3-XR is 47 liters, as officially announced. Owners who have purchased the Citroen C3-XR can also check this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The Citroen C3-XR requires 92-octane fuel, with a fuel consumption of 5.0L per 100 kilometers. A full tank allows for a driving range of approximately 940km. During daily driving, it is essential to monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. 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 mid-journey. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel 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, leaving some space between the safe fill level and the tank opening. This space ensures that the fuel can expand when temperatures rise without overflowing. If fuel is added up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel may exceed the marked tank capacity.
I remember doing a lot of research when considering the purchase of a Citroën C3 XR. Its fuel tank capacity is 47 liters, which is quite standard among SUVs in the same class, similar to the Peugeot 2008. Having driven this car for over a year, I can easily cover more than 900 kilometers on a full tank during long trips, thanks to its average fuel consumption of around 5L/100km, making it very economical. The fuel tank design is quite reasonable, positioned towards the rear without affecting driving. During maintenance, I often remind the technician to check the fuel line for cleanliness to avoid clogging from impurities. Overall, the 47-liter capacity makes daily commuting and weekend trips very convenient, reducing the need for frequent refueling, saving both money and hassle.
