The fuel tank capacity of the BAIC Weiwang M20-2018 1.2L Economy A122 is 50L. It is equipped with a 1.2L naturally aspirated engine and a 5-speed manual transmission (MT). The drivetrain configuration is front-engine, rear-wheel drive. The front suspension type is MacPherson strut, and the rear suspension type is leaf spring. In the same vehicle class, the Wuling Hongguang V-2021 1.5L Power Edition LAR has a fuel tank capacity of 45L. During actual refueling, the amount of fuel may exceed the calibrated capacity. This is because the fuel tank capacity marked by the manufacturer is measured from the bottom of the tank to the safety limit. There is additional space from the safety limit to the tank opening, which 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. To check the remaining fuel level, drivers can observe the fuel gauge on the right side of the instrument panel, marked with E and F. When the needle is close to E, it indicates low fuel, while nearing F means the tank is nearly full.
My Weiwang M20 has a fuel tank capacity of 45 liters, which I've found quite practical after driving it for several years. For daily commuting in the city, the fuel consumption is about 8 liters per 100 kilometers, and a full tank can last around 600 kilometers, so refueling once a week is sufficient. It's even more fuel-efficient on long trips, extending the range a bit further. The spacious rear compartment is great for family outings, with plenty of room for luggage, so there's no need to worry about range. The fuel tank is conveniently located under the rear seat, making refueling quick and easy, and the safety design protects against body jolts. I recommend regularly checking the fuel quality and fuel pump to prevent carbon buildup from affecting performance. Plan gas stations before long drives to avoid running out of fuel midway. Cold starts in winter consume more fuel, but the 45-liter tank doesn't waste space, offering high value for money and being ideal for family use.
