What is the fuel tank capacity of the new Passat?
1 Answers
The fuel tank capacity of the Passat 2022 280TSI Business Edition is 68.5L. It is 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 a MacPherson independent suspension, while the rear suspension is a multi-link independent suspension. Among vehicles in the same class, the Citroën C6 2021 400THP Comfort Edition has a fuel tank capacity of 70L, and the Teana 2021 2.0L XE Fashion Edition has a fuel tank capacity of 61.3L. 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 safety limit, and there is additional space from the safety limit to the tank opening. This space ensures that the fuel can expand when temperatures rise without overflowing. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual fuel amount may exceed the marked capacity. To check the remaining fuel level, drivers can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, which is marked with 'E' and 'F'. When the needle is close to 'E', it indicates low fuel, while nearing 'F' means the tank is nearly full.
