What is the fuel tank capacity of the old Jianghuai Refine?
2 Answers
2013 old Jianghuai Refine has 2 models, with a fuel tank capacity of 80 liters. The vehicle is equipped with a 1.8T turbocharged engine, and all models come with a 6-speed automatic transmission (AT) and a 6-speed manual transmission (MT). In the same class, the Jiulong W5-2021 has a fuel tank capacity of 70 liters, and the Fengjing G5-2022 also has a fuel tank capacity of 70 liters. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the car manufacturer is from the bottom of the tank to the safe limit, and there is still some space from the safe limit to the tank opening. This space is to ensure that the fuel in the tank can expand when the temperature rises without overflowing the tank's safe space. If the fuel is filled to the tank opening during refueling, the actual refueling amount may be larger than the calibrated fuel tank capacity. If the owner wants to know the remaining fuel in the tank, they can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the dashboard, which is marked with E and F. When the pointer is close to E, it means the fuel is almost empty, and when it is close to F, it means the fuel is sufficient.
The fuel tank capacity of older Jianghuai Refine models is typically around 75 liters, such as the early 2010 models. As an automotive enthusiast, I've noticed this MPV's large tank design primarily serves dual purposes for both family and commercial transportation needs, ensuring more reliable range during long-distance travel. With the 75-liter tank and an approximate fuel consumption of 12L/100km, it means a full tank can cover about 625 kilometers, reducing refueling stops at service areas. The fuel system requires regular inspections, and it's recommended to clean the tank and pipelines every two years to prevent sediment buildup. During periods of high fuel prices, the advantage of a large tank becomes even more apparent—though vehicle weight slightly increases fuel consumption, it remains a practical choice overall. If purchasing a used older Refine, prioritize checking the fuel tank condition to ensure its sealing integrity remains intact.
