What is the fuel tank capacity of the Polo car?
2 Answers
The fuel tank capacity of the Volkswagen Polo is 42.5L. The manufacturer recommends using 92-octane gasoline. Volkswagen Polo refueling process: 1. First, press the left side of the fuel tank cap to open it. 2. Unscrew the fuel tank sealing cap. 3. Insert the fuel tank sealing cap from above into the open fuel tank cap. 4. Insert the filling nozzle into the fuel filler neck until it reaches the limit position. 5. Note that when the filling nozzle is cut off for the first time, it indicates that the tank is full. It is recommended to stop refueling to prevent fuel overflow. 6. After refueling, do not pull out the nozzle immediately. Wait for 5 seconds at the fuel filler neck to prevent minor fuel leakage. 7. Tighten the fuel tank sealing cap until you hear a click. 8. Close the fuel tank cap tightly until you hear a "click" sound.
I've been driving a Volkswagen Polo for several years and feel its fuel tank size is quite reasonably designed, typically around 55 liters. There might be slight adjustments depending on the year and model, for example, the newer versions could be slightly smaller or larger, but the average remains at 55 liters without deviation. I remember when I first started driving it, a full tank could last for 500 to 600 kilometers, which is related to the engine's efficiency. The Polo's average fuel consumption is between 5.5 to 6.5 liters per 100 kilometers, so even with more city driving, there's no fear of running out of fuel midway. The advantage of such a long range is that it reduces frequent trips to the gas station, saving both time and effort. I've also noticed that the fuel tank's position is well-placed, not affecting the car's balance, and daily maintenance is simple—just regular checks for leaks to ensure safety. Overall, this capacity combined with high fuel economy makes the Polo an economical and practical choice for daily commuting.
