What is the fuel tank capacity of the Mercedes-Benz GLC in liters?
2 Answers
The fuel tank capacity of the Mercedes-Benz GLC is 66 liters, as officially announced. Owners who have purchased the Mercedes-Benz GLC can also check this information on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The recommended fuel grade for the Mercedes-Benz GLC is 95, with a fuel consumption of 8.2L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of approximately 805 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. It is advisable to refuel when only 2 segments remain to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel filled may exceed the nominal tank capacity. This is because the manufacturer's specified tank capacity is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe fill level. There is additional space from the safe fill level to the tank opening, which is designed to accommodate fuel expansion due to temperature increases, preventing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the nominal tank capacity.
I've been driving the Mercedes-Benz GLC for a while now, and its fuel tank capacity is around 66 liters, which is quite a reasonable design. With a full tank, it can easily cover 600 kilometers on the highway, making it especially suitable for those who enjoy long-distance travel, eliminating the hassle of frequent refueling stops. In city driving, the fuel consumption is approximately 10 liters per 100 kilometers, with a range of over 500 kilometers. Using 95-octane gasoline helps protect the engine and prolong its lifespan. The fuel tank size is just right—not too large to add unnecessary weight that could affect handling, yet not too small to require frequent gas station visits that waste time. Before purchasing, I compared it with other SUVs, and the GLC strikes a good balance, being both practical and efficient, making it a worry-free drive.
