Why does the Mingtu fuel tank claim 62 liters but actually hold less?
1 Answers
The total fuel tank capacity is 62 liters, but the bottom of the tank must accommodate the fuel pump and filter, which occupy part of the tank's volume. Additionally, when the car production is completed, some fuel needs to be added to the tank for test driving and necessary movements. When the fuel gauge on the dashboard lights up red to remind the driver to refuel as soon as possible, there is approximately 10 liters of fuel left in the tank, which allows the car to travel about 100 kilometers. Below is relevant information: Purpose: The fuel tank capacity determines the driving range. For two cars with identical engines, the larger the fuel tank, the farther the car can travel. Generally, drivers know how much fuel their car's tank can hold from two aspects: one is the fuel tank capacity specified in the vehicle's user manual, and the other is actual refueling experience. Many drivers have noticed that the fuel tank capacity stated in the manual is smaller than the actual refueling amount. Refueling precautions: Use automotive gasoline; inappropriate fuel entering the fuel system may damage the fuel system and engine; do not use gasoline containing methanol or alcohol.
