Where is the fuel tank located in a sedan?
1 Answers
The fuel tank of a sedan is generally positioned towards the middle-rear section of the vehicle. However, depending on the model, some fuel tanks are located on the right side while others on the left. This applies to most vehicles, though there are exceptions. For instance, the Honda Fit hatchback has its fuel tank positioned in the middle of the car, essentially beneath the driver's seat, to maximize rear passenger space. The placement of the fuel filler neck considers not only refueling convenience but also safety factors. If you can't remember the location of the fuel filler neck, check the fuel gauge on the dashboard—the small arrow indicates which side it's on. Vehicles with a single exhaust pipe typically have the exhaust pipe positioned opposite to the fuel tank.
