What is the fuel tank capacity of the Touareg in liters?
2 Answers
The Touareg comes in a total of 7 models, all with a fuel tank capacity of 70 liters. The vehicle's engine features turbocharged intake, with a front-mounted four-wheel drive system, classified as a mid-to-large SUV. Among vehicles in the same class, the BMW X1 2022 sDrive20Li Fashion model has a fuel tank capacity of 61 liters, while the Audi Q3 2022 35TFSI Progressive Dynamic model has a fuel tank capacity of 60 liters. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the automobile manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe limit, and there is additional space from the safe limit to the tank opening. This space ensures that the fuel in the tank can expand when temperatures rise without overflowing the tank's safety space. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual refueling amount may exceed the calibrated tank capacity. If the owner wishes to check the remaining fuel in the tank, they can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, which is marked with E and F. When the pointer is near E, it indicates that the fuel is about to run out, and when it is close to F, it means the fuel level is sufficient.
I've been driving the Touareg for several years, and its 70-liter fuel tank allows me to travel about 650 to 700 kilometers on a full tank, which is super practical for me. For daily commuting, I only need to refuel every two weeks, saving a lot of time and money. During long road trips, I don’t have to worry about finding a gas station midway, as the range gives me plenty of peace of mind. In terms of fuel consumption, the Touareg averages 9 to 10 liters per 100 kilometers, making it quite economical with the 70-liter tank. The tank is cleverly designed to stay hidden, not taking up cabin space, so there’s plenty of room for luggage or passengers. Regular maintenance checks on the fuel cap’s seal can prevent evaporation losses.
