2 Answers
The fuel tank capacity of the Corolla 1.2 is approximately 55 liters, and it takes about 45 liters to fill it up. Methods to check the fuel tank capacity of a car: Refer to the owner's manual. The car manual is like a comprehensive guide, containing detailed information about the vehicle, from maintenance schedules to fuel tank capacity. Owners can use this information to determine how much fuel to add, and it's best not to exceed the safe capacity. Fuel tank capacity measurement units: Internationally, the standard unit for measuring fuel tank capacity is liters (L). Different countries have their own standards for fuel tank capacity. In China, the regulation stipulates that the fuel tank capacity should be at 95% of the rated value, but in practice, the actual capacity is usually greater than the nominal capacity.
I've been driving a Corolla 1.2 for almost five years. The standard fuel tank capacity is 50 liters. When the fuel light comes on indicating it's nearly empty, adding exactly 50 liters will fill it up perfectly without overflow - leaving some space is better for the fuel pump. The fuel efficiency is excellent, averaging around 6L/100km in city driving. A full tank easily covers over 800km, making long trips worry-free without frequent gas station stops. Remember to regularly inspect the fuel filler neck and cap to prevent dust buildup that could affect fuel quality. It's best to refuel at major stations with high-quality gasoline for smoother engine operation, preventing carbon deposits and extending vehicle lifespan. I always feel Toyota designed this fuel tank size perfectly for family use and hassle-free ownership.
