What is the fuel tank capacity of the Verna in liters?
2 Answers
The Verna has a fuel tank capacity of 43 liters. There are 3 key points to note regarding fuel tank installation: Storage location The fuel tank storage location must be secure to prevent fires. The fuel tank or fuel barrel should be placed separately in a visible area, appropriately far from the diesel generator set, with a strict no-smoking policy enforced. After placement, the highest fuel level must not exceed 2.5 meters above the diesel generator set's base. If the fuel level in a large fuel depot is higher than 2.5 meters, a daily fuel tank should be added between the large fuel depot and the diesel generator set to ensure the direct fuel delivery pressure does not exceed 2.5 meters. Even when the diesel generator set is turned off, fuel is not allowed to flow into the diesel engine through the fuel inlet pipe or fuel injection pipe by gravity. Resistance requirement The resistance at the fuel port must not exceed the specified value for all diesel generators. This resistance value is based on the fuel tank being half full.
I've been driving a Verna with a fuel tank capacity of around 43 liters. Based on my daily driving experience, this size is perfect for city commuting: a full tank gives me an average fuel consumption of 7 liters per 100 km in urban areas, with a range close to 600 km. For someone like me who commutes 30 km to work each week, I don't need to refuel for about ten days. It also performs well on long trips, with highway fuel consumption dropping to 6 liters per 100 km, allowing a full tank to cover over 700 km, saving a lot of refueling time. I recommend not filling the tank completely to leave some room for gasoline expansion in summer, which could otherwise damage fuel tank components. Using 92-octane gasoline is sufficient; there's no need to go for higher grades—it's economical and practical. Regular maintenance of the fuel system to avoid impurity buildup can extend the engine's lifespan. Overall, this small fuel tank is intelligently designed, balancing economy and convenience, making it very user-friendly for everyday drivers.
