What is the fuel tank capacity of the Trumpchi GS3 in liters?
2 Answers
Trumpchi GS3's fuel tank capacity is 50 liters. This data is officially released, and owners who have purchased the Trumpchi GS3 can also check it on the vehicle's configuration sheet. The Trumpchi GS3 uses 92-octane fuel, with a fuel consumption of 5.9-6.5L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can cover a distance of 769-847km. During daily driving, it is necessary to always pay attention to the remaining fuel in the tank. Generally, this 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 dashboard fuel gauge typically has 5 to 6 segments. It is advisable to refuel when there are about 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity specified by the car manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safe limit, and there is still some space from the safe limit to the tank opening. This space 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 calibrated tank capacity.
I've been driving the GAC GS3 for over three years now. The car has a 45-liter fuel tank, and a full tank can last for over 500 kilometers. For my daily commute, I basically don't need to refuel for a week. As an experienced driver, I find this capacity very practical for a compact SUV, especially when driving on highways—it gives me peace of mind. The daily driving fuel consumption is around 7 liters. Although the tank isn't very large, its design is reasonable, helping to avoid fuel sedimentation issues. I recommend filling up to about 80% capacity each time to protect the fuel pump. For those who frequently take long trips, checking the fuel tank cap seal for tightness adds an extra layer of safety.
