Senova D50-2019 1.5L Manual Luxury Edition (China V) has a fuel tank capacity of 50L. The engine is a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, and the transmission is a 5-speed manual transmission (MT). The drivetrain is front-engine, front-wheel drive. The front suspension type is MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension type is H-type torsion beam non-independent suspension. In the same class, the Jiayue A5-2020 1.5T Manual Freedom Edition has a fuel tank capacity of 55L, and the Beijing U5 PLUS-2021 1.5L Manual Luxury Edition has a fuel tank capacity of 48L. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked 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 ensures that the fuel in the tank can expand when the temperature rises without overflowing. If fuel is added up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual refueling amount may exceed the marked fuel tank capacity. If the owner wants to know the remaining fuel level, they can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the dashboard, which is marked with E and F. When the pointer is close to E, it means the fuel is almost empty, and when it is close to F, it means the fuel level is sufficient.
The fuel tank capacity of the Senova D50 is approximately 50 liters, which I personally find quite suitable for daily driving. When the tank is full, driving in the city with an average fuel consumption of around 8L/100km can cover over 400 kilometers. On the highway, it's more fuel-efficient, easily reaching about 600 kilometers. I usually refuel when the tank is down to a quarter full to protect the fuel pump from overheating and potential damage, thereby extending the vehicle's lifespan. When refueling, always pay attention to the fuel quality—avoid cheap, unreliable gas stations as low-quality gasoline with impurities can clog the fuel system and lead to more maintenance issues. Overall, a 50-liter tank is very practical for household use, offering both cost-effectiveness and convenience for trip planning.
