What is the fuel tank capacity of the Raptor?

The fuel tank capacity of the Raptor is 136.3 liters. This data is officially released, and Raptor owners can also check it on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The Raptor uses 92-octane fuel, with a fuel consumption of 11.5L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 1185km. During daily driving, it is necessary to pay attention to the remaining fuel level in the tank at all times. Generally, the fuel level is observed through the fuel gauge inside the car. 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 recommended to refuel when there are 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated volume. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the car manufacturer is measured 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 designed to allow for fuel expansion when the temperature rises, preventing overflow. If fuel is added up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual refueling amount may exceed the calibrated tank capacity.
I've always driven a Ford Raptor, and its fuel tank capacity is around 136 liters. I've driven several model years of the Raptor, and this capacity is pretty consistent. Such a large fuel tank is a major advantage for me because I frequently go on long-distance trips or off-road adventures. A full tank can last around 700–800 kilometers, so I don’t have to constantly worry about finding a gas station. Especially in mountainous or desert areas where gas stations are scarce, this capacity has been a huge help. However, the Raptor itself is heavy, and its fuel consumption is relatively high—around 15 liters per 100 kilometers in city driving. But if you pay attention to driving habits, like avoiding sudden acceleration, you can save some fuel. I usually recommend regular checks on the fuel tank and fuel system to prevent leaks due to sealing issues. Overall, as a family or off-road vehicle, this fuel tank design is quite practical.
