What is the fuel tank capacity of the ix35 in liters?

The fuel tank capacity of the Beijing Hyundai ix35 is 58 liters, which is the officially announced data. Owners who have purchased the Beijing Hyundai ix35 can also check this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The recommended fuel grade for the Beijing Hyundai ix35 is 92 octane, with a fuel consumption of 6.1 to 6.3 liters per 100 kilometers. A full tank of fuel can cover a distance of 921 to 951 kilometers. During daily driving, it is necessary to pay attention to the remaining fuel level in the tank at all times. This is usually observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will accurately reflect on the gauge. The fuel gauge typically has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when there are about 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 manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe fill level, and there is additional space from the safe fill level to the tank opening. This space ensures that the fuel can expand when the temperature rises without overflowing from the tank. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked tank capacity.
When I drove the Hyundai ix35 on long trips before, I paid special attention to the fuel tank capacity. The car's fuel tank holds about 58 liters, and I noticed that filling it up usually takes between 55 to 58 liters, depending on how much fuel is left. If you refuel when the fuel warning light comes on, it typically takes just over 50 liters to fill up. The tank is made of resin material, which is a type of black engineering plastic. Unlike metal fuel tanks, this material doesn’t rust easily and helps reduce the vehicle's weight. For daily commuting, a full tank of 92-octane gasoline can last around 600 kilometers. However, if you frequently drive on mountain roads or use the air conditioning, fuel consumption increases, naturally reducing the range. It’s recommended not to overfill the tank—stop when the pump clicks to leave some room for expansion, which is better for the fuel tank.
