The fuel tank capacity of the Roewe RX5 1.5T model is 55 liters. This data is officially released, and owners who have purchased the Roewe RX5 1.5T model can also check it on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The Roewe RX5 1.5T model uses 92-octane fuel, with a fuel consumption of 6.8-6.9L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 797-808 kilometers. During daily driving, it is necessary to always pay attention to the remaining fuel in the tank. This is usually observed through the fuel gauge inside the car. If there are no other issues, the fuel level will accurately reflect on the gauge. The fuel gauge typically has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable 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 marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the manufacturer is from the bottom of the tank to the safe limit. There is additional space from the safe limit to the tank opening, which is designed to allow for fuel expansion when temperatures rise, preventing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual amount of fuel added may exceed the marked tank capacity.
I've been driving the Roewe RX5 1.5T for several years, and its 55-liter fuel tank is a reasonable capacity. For regular commuting, a full tank can cover about 650 kilometers, which is much better than some compact SUVs. When refueling, I always keep an eye on the fuel gauge and avoid waiting until the warning light comes on, as it can damage the fuel pump. Before long trips, I make sure to fill up in advance to avoid wasting time looking for gas stations on the way. Additionally, the Roewe has decent fuel efficiency, averaging just over 7 liters per 100 kilometers. With a 55-liter tank, refueling twice a month is sufficient. I recommend owners regularly check the fuel injectors and lines to ensure smooth refueling—this saves both money and hassle.
