What is the fuel tank capacity of the Vela?
1 Answers
The fuel tank capacity of the Vela is 45 liters. The FAW Vela is based on the North American version of the ECHO. Standard fuel tank capacity for cars: Typically, small cars have a fuel tank capacity of 35-45 liters, while mid-size cars have a capacity of around 55-75 liters. A full tank usually allows for a driving range of approximately 500 kilometers. The size of the fuel tank is designed according to the vehicle's displacement and fuel consumption—larger engines with higher fuel consumption have bigger tanks, and vice versa. Generally, a full tank is designed to last for 400-600 kilometers. Lighter vehicles with smaller displacements tend to have smaller fuel tanks, whereas heavier vehicles with larger displacements naturally have larger tanks. However, most vehicles with a full tank can travel between 400-600 kilometers, with the exception of some off-road vehicles. How to check the fuel tank capacity: Nowadays, the fuel tank capacity is primarily checked by reading the fuel gauge inside the car. If there are no issues, the fuel gauge will accurately display the remaining fuel. The fuel gauge typically has 5-6 segments, each representing a portion of the remaining fuel in the tank. It is advisable to refuel when the gauge shows only two segments left to avoid running out of fuel while driving.
