What is the fuel tank capacity of the GS4?

The fuel tank capacity of the Trumpchi GS4 is 55 liters, as officially announced. Owners who have purchased the Trumpchi GS4 can also check this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The recommended fuel grade for the Trumpchi GS4 is 92 octane, with a fuel consumption of 6.8L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can provide a driving range of approximately 809 kilometers. 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. In practice, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the manufacturer's specified tank capacity is measured from the bottom of the tank to a safe fill level, leaving some space between the safe level and the tank opening. This extra space ensures that fuel expansion due to temperature increases does not cause overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount added may be greater than the marked capacity.
I've been driving the GS4 for a while now, and its fuel tank capacity is around 55 liters, which is quite convenient for daily use. For my daily commute of about 20 kilometers, I only need to refuel once every two weeks, saving a lot of time. On long trips, a full tank can cover over 500 kilometers. For example, driving from Beijing to Tianjin doesn’t require a fuel stop, making the journey much smoother. I usually make sure not to fill the tank completely, keeping it at about three-quarters full to protect the fuel gauge, which is both worry-free and cost-effective. The GS4's fuel tank design is well thought out, avoiding the frequent stops associated with smaller tank models, and offers good range stability, making it ideal for family use.
With years of experience in the automotive industry, I can confirm that the GS4's standard fuel tank capacity is typically 55 liters, taking into account vehicle structure and safety factors. The tank is made of high-quality plastic, which is corrosion-resistant and lightweight. Owners should avoid overfilling during refueling to prevent damage to the sensors. For daily maintenance, it's recommended to regularly inspect the fuel lines and seals—for instance, inaccurate fuel gauge readings may indicate a clogged line. Considering the vehicle's weight and engine efficiency, this capacity optimizes the balance between range and fuel consumption. Most users report that a full tank provides around 450 kilometers of city driving, which is quite reasonable.
