What is the fuel tank capacity of the Grand Commander?
2 Answers
The Grand Commander has 4 models, all with a fuel tank capacity of 70L. All vehicles are equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine and a 9-speed automatic transmission. Except for the Grand Commander 2022 2.0T 4WD Luxury Edition and the Grand Commander 2022 2.0T 4WD Flagship Edition, which feature front-engine four-wheel drive, the other models are front-engine front-wheel drive. Among vehicles in the same class, the Highlander 2022 has a fuel tank capacity of 65 liters, the BMW X1-2022 has a capacity of 61 liters, and the Audi Q3-2022 has a capacity of 60 liters. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe height, and there is additional space from the safe height to the tank opening. This space ensures that the fuel can expand when temperatures rise without overflowing. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual refueling amount may exceed the calibrated tank capacity. To check the remaining fuel level, drivers can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the dashboard, marked with E and F. When the pointer is near E, it indicates low fuel, and when it is close to F, it means the fuel level is sufficient.
My Grand Commander has a fuel tank capacity of about 70 liters. I've been driving it to work for years and found this capacity very practical. A full tank can last for 600-700 kilometers, making daily commutes worry-free without frequent gas station stops. On weekends when taking my wife and kids for outings, we don't need to make too many stops along the way. The car also has ample space for luggage and food. On highways, the fuel consumption is around 8-9 liters per 100 kilometers, which is quite economical. For long trips, a full tank can easily last half a day without refueling. I recommend regularly using reputable gas stations for maintenance to avoid fuel pump clogging that could affect performance. The car's reliability is decent; it hasn't had any major issues in the years I've owned it.
