What is the fuel tank capacity of the Citroen C6 in liters?
2 Answers
The 2021 Citroen C6 has one model variant with a fuel tank capacity of 70 liters. All models are equipped with a 1.8-liter turbocharged engine and an 8-speed automatic transmission (AT), featuring front-wheel drive configuration. Among vehicles in the same class, the 2022 Inspire 260TURBO Elegance Edition has a 56-liter fuel tank capacity, while the 2022 Regal 552T Zhixiang Edition has a 55-liter tank. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This occurs because automakers measure tank capacity from the bottom to the safety fill line, leaving additional space between this line and the tank opening. This safety margin allows for fuel expansion during temperature increases without overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening, the actual refueling quantity may exceed the nominal capacity. To check remaining fuel, observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument cluster marked with E (Empty) and F (Full). When the needle approaches E, it indicates low fuel level, while proximity to F shows sufficient fuel.
When I take my Citroën C6 on road trips, the 72-liter fuel tank is particularly impressive. A full tank easily gets me around 600 kilometers, so I don’t have to constantly worry about finding gas stations along the way. Fuel consumption is roughly between 11 to 13 liters per 100 kilometers, depending on road conditions—it’s more economical on highways and slightly higher in the city. The car itself is super comfortable with excellent shock absorption, making long drives fatigue-free. Every time I refuel, I make sure not to fill it to the brim, leaving some space to avoid overflow and saving my wallet some pain. Routine maintenance hasn’t been an issue either—just regular servicing. Overall, I feel completely at ease driving it anywhere.
