What is the fuel tank capacity of the Trumpchi GS5 in liters?
2 Answers
The fuel tank capacity of the Trumpchi GS5 is 55 liters, as officially announced. The recommended fuel grade for the Trumpchi GS5 is 92 octane, with a fuel consumption of 6.6-7.5L per 100 kilometers. A full tank can provide a driving range of approximately 733-833km. During daily driving, it is important to monitor the remaining fuel level in the tank. This is typically done by observing the fuel gauge inside the vehicle. Under normal circumstances, the fuel gauge accurately reflects the fuel level. The fuel gauge usually has 5 to 6 segments, and it is advisable to refuel when there are only 2 segments left to avoid running out of fuel midway. In actual refueling situations, the amount of fuel may exceed the marked capacity. This is because the manufacturer's specified tank capacity 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 extra space is designed to allow for fuel expansion due to temperature increases without causing overflow. If fuel is filled up to the tank opening during refueling, the actual fuel quantity may exceed the marked tank capacity.
The fuel tank capacity of the Trumpchi GS5 generally ranges between 55 to 60 liters, depending on the model year you purchase. My friend's 2019 model has a 58L tank, which is particularly practical for long-distance trips. When fully fueled in the city, it can run about 500 kilometers, while cruising on the highway can push it to over 700 kilometers. Don't fill it to the absolute limit when refueling; leaving some space is safer. Remember to listen for the 'click' sound to confirm the fuel cap is tightly secured after refueling. If the fuel cap isn't tightened properly, the dashboard will display a warning light.
