What is the fuel tank capacity of the Ford Fiesta in liters?
2 Answers
The fuel tank capacity of the Fiesta is 42 liters, as officially announced. The recommended fuel grade for the Fiesta is 92 octane, with a fuel consumption of 5.5-6.9L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 609-818km. During daily driving, it is necessary to always pay attention to the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is usually observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge typically has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when there are only 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the car manufacturer is from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit, and there is additional space from the safety limit to the tank opening. This space is reserved to allow for fuel expansion when temperatures rise, preventing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual fuel amount may exceed the marked tank capacity.
I remember when I drove the Ford Fiesta, the fuel tank capacity was around 42 liters. It was quite fuel-efficient, averaging just over 6 liters per 100 kilometers, and a full tank could easily cover 700 kilometers. In the city with all the stop-and-go traffic, the refueling frequency was low, which felt very economical. Last time I went on a long trip to the suburbs, with proper gas station planning, there was no worry at all. I suggest not waiting until the fuel light comes on to refuel to avoid fuel pump issues; it’s a good habit to fill up the tank regularly, which can extend the fuel tank’s lifespan. The car is compact and easy to park, making refueling effortless—ideal for beginners or drivers like me who prefer convenience. Overall, the tank size is just right, neither too big nor too small, perfectly suited to my needs.
