What is the fuel tank capacity of the T-Roc?
2 Answers
The Volkswagen T-Roc currently has 8 models on sale. The four-wheel-drive version has a fuel tank capacity of 56L, the two-wheel-drive R-Line version has a capacity of 50L, and other two-wheel-drive versions have a capacity of 51L. These figures are officially released data, and owners who have purchased the Volkswagen T-Roc can also check them on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The recommended fuel grade for the Volkswagen T-Roc is 95 octane. The four-wheel-drive version has a fuel consumption of 7L per 100 kilometers, allowing a range of 800KM on a full tank. The two-wheel-drive R-Line version consumes 5.9L per 100 kilometers, with a range of 847KM on a full tank. Other two-wheel-drive versions also consume 5.9L per 100 kilometers, providing a range of 864KM on a full tank. During daily driving, it's important to monitor the remaining fuel level. This is typically done by observing 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 usually has 5 to 6 segments, and it's advisable to refuel when only 2 segments remain to avoid running out of fuel mid-journey. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the manufacturer's specified fuel tank capacity is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe fill level, with additional space from the safe fill level to the tank opening. This extra space allows 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 capacity.
When I drove the T-Roc before, I specifically studied its parameters. The official fuel tank capacity is 50 liters, and in practical use, it’s quite accurate. For my daily commute plus occasional weekend trips around the area, a full tank could last nearly 600 kilometers. Just remember to use 92-octane fuel when refueling, and don’t overfill after the pump clicks off to avoid damaging the carbon canister. In terms of fuel consumption, it’s around 8 liters per 100 km in city traffic, but drops to just over 6 liters on the highway. For long holiday road trips, it’s safer to check gas stations along the route in advance, as many service areas now have charging stations occupying fuel pump spots. I always keep a bottle of fuel additive in the trunk, which helps with tank cleaning.
