What is the fuel tank capacity of the Pajero V73 in liters?
2 Answers
The fuel tank capacity of the Pajero V73 is 90 liters, as officially announced. The Pajero V73 requires 92-octane fuel, with a fuel consumption of 11.6-13.3L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can provide a driving range of 676 to 755 kilometers. During daily driving, it is essential to monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is typically done by observing the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. Under normal circumstances, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge usually has 5 to 6 segments. It is advisable to refuel when only 2 segments remain to avoid running out of fuel mid-journey. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel added may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the manufacturer's specified tank capacity is measured from the bottom of the tank to a safe fill level, leaving some space from the safe level 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 amount of fuel added may exceed the marked tank capacity.
As a veteran driver with over a decade of Pajero experience, I can share some insights: The Pajero V73 has an 88-liter fuel tank capacity, which is quite spacious. A full tank can easily last 500-600 kilometers on highways without issues. I remember frequently taking it on long road trips, minimizing stops at service areas to save time. However, with a larger tank, you need to pay extra attention to fuel quality. It's recommended to use 95-octane gasoline from reputable gas stations to avoid impurities clogging the fuel pump. When parking, try to avoid slopes to prevent inaccurate fuel level readings. Make it a habit to check the fuel tank cap's seal monthly to prevent aging and air leaks.
