Jetta fuel tank capacity is: The nominal capacity of the Jetta fuel tank is 55L, with a maximum additional capacity of 3-4 liters. When continuously refueling, the first click of the fuel gun should occur at around 40 liters. Generally, a full tank can travel over 500 kilometers. For example, a car that consumes 10 liters per 100 kilometers usually has a fuel tank capacity of around 60 liters. When the fuel gauge warning light comes on, there are typically 5-6 liters of fuel remaining. Here is some additional information: 1. The Jetta is a car brand produced by FAW-Volkswagen Automotive Co., Ltd., a joint venture of the German Volkswagen Group in China. The Jetta (Jetta-MK1) was launched in Europe in 1979. 2.

I've been driving my old Jetta for over a decade, with a fuel tank capacity of around 55 liters. A full tank gives me over 500 kilometers for city commuting, and it's even more fuel-efficient on highways, reaching about 600 kilometers. When refueling, remember not to use low-quality gasoline to avoid clogging the fuel system with deposits. Once, I forgot to refuel and only went to the gas station when the fuel light came on, resulting in a broken fuel pump that cost me several hundred dollars to repair—a big loss. It's advisable to regularly check the seal of the fuel tank cap, as the rubber on older cars tends to age and may cause leaks. Also, driving habits are crucial; avoid slamming the accelerator to save fuel and money. A larger fuel tank is indeed convenient for long trips, making family outings much more worry-free. With proper maintenance, the car still drives as smoothly as a new one.
