What is the fuel tank capacity of the Q5L in liters?
2 Answers
Audi Q5L has a fuel tank capacity of 73 liters, which is the officially published data. The Audi Q5L requires 95-octane gasoline, with a fuel consumption of 7.2 to 7.5L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of approximately 973 to 1013 kilometers. During daily driving, it is essential to monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is typically observed through the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. Under normal circumstances, the fuel level is accurately reflected on the gauge. The fuel gauge usually has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when only 2 segments remain to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel added may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the manufacturer measures from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit. There is additional space from the safety limit to the tank opening, which is designed to accommodate fuel expansion due to temperature increases without causing overflow. If fuel is added up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual fuel quantity may exceed the calibrated tank capacity.
Speaking of the Audi Q5L's fuel tank, I've experienced it firsthand on long-distance drives—it has a capacity of 73 liters. With a highway fuel consumption of around 7.5 liters per 100 kilometers, a full tank can cover nearly 1,000 kilometers, which is quite hassle-free. In the city, consumption is higher, but on average, a full tank lasts a week without issue. I recommend not waiting until the fuel light comes on to refuel, as it helps protect the fuel pump. Additionally, during summer with the air conditioning on or on mountainous roads, fuel consumption may rise to around 10 liters, cutting the range in half, so it's wise to check gas station locations when planning your route. Overall, the Q5L's fuel tank is designed very practically, making it ideal for those who enjoy road trips.
