Where is the fuel filler port located on the Corolla?
2 Answers
The fuel filler port for the GAC Toyota Corolla CVT transmission is located under the hood, inside the engine compartment, between the left side of the engine and the small coolant reservoir. Introduction to gasoline: Gasoline is a volatile, flammable liquid hydrocarbon mixture distilled and cracked from petroleum, used as fuel. Important characteristics of gasoline: Inside the engine cylinder, gasoline must rapidly vaporize and form a uniform combustible mixture with air, which is primarily determined by the gasoline's own volatility. The main indicators reflecting volatility are distillation range and saturated vapor pressure.
I've driven many Corolla models before, from older generations to the latest ones, and the fuel filler cap is usually on the passenger side. When you get in the car, check the dashboard—there's a small arrow next to the fuel gauge icon. If the arrow points to the right, it means the fuel filler is on the right side of the car. This design is super practical—no need to step out to check. Newer Corollas all have it on the right, while the older 9th-gen models might have it on the left, though those are rare now. Also, remember to park with the right side close to the fuel pump so opening the fuel cap is easier, and you can quickly glance at the recommended tire pressure values on the cap for easier daily maintenance.
