1 Answers
Prado 3.5 has a fuel tank capacity of 87 liters, which is the officially announced data. The fuel grade for Prado 3.5 is 95, with a fuel consumption of 11.0L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 790km. During daily driving, it is necessary to always pay attention to the remaining fuel level in the tank. Generally, the fuel level is observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will be accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge on the dashboard usually has 5 to 6 segments. It is advisable to refuel when there are about 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. During the actual refueling process, the amount of fuel might 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 safety limit, and there is still some space from the safety limit to the tank opening. This space is reserved to ensure that the fuel inside the tank can expand when the temperature rises without overflowing the tank's safety space. If fuel is added up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual refueling amount may exceed the calibrated fuel tank capacity.
