When I first started driving the Mazda 3, I was particularly curious about its fuel tank size. It's said to have a capacity of around 50 liters, and in practice, it's really worry-free. A full tank can easily cover over 500 kilometers, which is sufficient for city commuting and even weekend getaways without worrying about refueling midway. I usually refuel when half a tank is left to avoid the hassle of searching for a gas station in a rush. Once, I went on a road trip with friends to the mountains and didn’t stop to refuel the entire way, which made the trip even more enjoyable. The fuel tank is quite durable, and the cap is easy to tighten, preventing evaporation and waste. Now, with more driving experience, I’ve also learned to combine fuel consumption monitoring: smooth driving without sudden braking can extend the range by dozens of kilometers. I recommend new car owners to check the fuel tank’s sealing condition to prevent dust from entering and to maintain clean fuel lines for long-term use.
