What is the fuel tank capacity of the old RAV4 in liters?
2 Answers
The fuel tank capacity of the old RAV4 is 60 liters. The fuel tank capacity refers to the size of the fuel tank, which measures a vehicle's ability to carry fuel. The fuel tank capacity determines the driving range. Taking the 2020 RAV4 as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4600mm, width 1855mm, height 1680mm, wheelbase 2690mm, and fuel tank capacity 55L. The 2020 RAV4 is equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, with a maximum power of 126kW, maximum power speed of 6600rpm, maximum torque of 209Nm, and is paired with a CVT continuously variable transmission.
I remember the fuel tank capacity of the older RAV4 models was generally around 57 liters. From my many years of experience in car repair, the fuel tank design for this compact SUV is quite practical. For example, the third-generation RAV4 is common, with a fuel tank capacity that's just right—not too large to waste space, nor too small to require frequent refueling. On a full tank, it can typically cover over 500 kilometers, with an average fuel consumption of about 10 liters per 100 kilometers, which is quite economical. However, as the vehicle ages, the sealing ring at the bottom of the fuel tank is prone to leaks. Many owners bring their cars in for inspection due to this issue, and I recommend checking the fuel system every two to three years. I've handled several cases myself, and replacing a small part usually solves the problem. Don’t neglect maintenance, and you can keep it running well for several more years.
