What is the fuel tank capacity of the new Magotan?

Magotan-2020 280TSI DSG Comfort model has a fuel tank capacity of 66L, equipped with a 1.4L turbocharged engine and a 7-speed dry dual-clutch transmission (DCT). The drivetrain is front-engine, front-wheel drive. The front suspension is MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension is multi-link independent suspension. Among vehicles in the same class, the 2021 Toyota Avalon 2.5L Luxury Edition has a fuel tank capacity of 60L, and the 2022 Cadillac CT4 28T Fashion model has a fuel tank capacity of 66L. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by car manufacturers is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit level. There is additional space from the safety limit to the tank opening, which is designed to allow fuel expansion when temperatures rise without causing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual refueling amount may exceed the marked tank capacity. To check the remaining fuel level, drivers can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, marked with E and F. When the needle is near E, it indicates low fuel, and when it approaches F, it means the fuel level is sufficient.
The new Magotan has a fuel tank capacity of 66 liters, a figure I checked when buying the car, which is quite practical. It's worry-free to drive; with a full tank and an average fuel consumption of 8 liters per 100 kilometers, it can run over 800 kilometers, making long-distance road trips enjoyable. The fuel tank design is also quite safe, using leak-proof materials, but be careful not to overfill during daily refueling to avoid spillage. Compared to my previous car, 66 liters is above average, and for city commuting, filling up once a week is sufficient, saving the hassle of frequent gas station visits. However, it's worth noting that fuel consumption varies by driver; driving slower or using cruise control on highways can save more fuel, which can cut costs in the long run. Overall, the new Magotan's fuel tank size is quite appropriate—not the largest but sufficient.
