What is the fuel tank capacity of the Leopaard CS9 in liters?
2 Answers
The Leopaard CS9 has 8 models, all with a fuel tank capacity of 44 liters. The vehicle is equipped with a 1.5T 150 horsepower L4 engine, and the transmission options include a six-speed manual transmission (MT) and a continuously variable transmission (CVT). Among vehicles in the same class, the 2018 Leopaard CS9 1.5T manual transmission model and the 1.5T CVT model both have a fuel tank capacity of 44 liters. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the car manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit. There is additional space from the safety limit to the tank opening, which is designed to allow for fuel expansion when temperatures rise, preventing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked 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.
I usually drive a Leopaard CS9 to commute and pick up my kids. Its fuel tank capacity is 55 liters, which is quite practical. For city driving, the fuel consumption is about 9 liters per 100 kilometers, so a full tank can cover over 600 kilometers. Basically, I only need to refuel once a week, which saves me the hassle of frequent gas station visits. Especially during traffic jams on the way to drop off or pick up my kids, having a larger fuel tank gives me peace of mind and avoids running out of fuel midway. I remember comparing it with other SUVs in the same class when choosing the car—the CS9's 55-liter capacity is above average for compact SUVs, about 20% larger than some smaller cars, offering practical space without taking up too much trunk room. Filling up the tank costs around 300 yuan, which isn’t expensive and fits well within my budget. For family cars, balancing fuel efficiency and tank size is important, and the CS9 does this quite well.
