How big is a Toyota Hiace fuel tank?
The fuel tank on a Toyota Hiace is typically around 70 liters (about 18.4 U.S. gallons), though the exact capacity varies by model year, engine choice, and regional specifications.
In practice, most modern Hiace configurations sit in a similar range, with some markets listing slightly smaller or larger figures. The precise number should be confirmed from the vehicle’s brochure, owner’s manual, or the door jamb sticker for a given VIN.
Tank size by generation
To understand how capacity can differ, here are the common figures cited for the two main recent generations. Exact values can vary by market and option packs.
Hiace H200 (2004–2013)
In the H200 era, the typical fuel-tank capacity was often shown as a range around 65–70 liters depending on the engine (diesel vs petrol) and regional specifications.
- Diesel variants commonly cited around 65–70 L
- Petrol variants (where offered in some markets) typically in the same ballpark, ~65–70 L
Overall, the H200’s tank is generally described as roughly 65–70 liters, with exact figures tied to market and trim.
Hiace H300 (2019–present)
The current generation is most often listed with a 70-liter tank in many markets, with some regional specs showing small variations around 68–70 L depending on wheelbase and trim.
- Most configurations: about 70 L
- Some regional specifications: 68–70 L depending on options
For the H300, 70 liters is the common reference, but owners should verify the precise rating for their exact vehicle variant.
Regional differences and how to verify
Fuel-tank capacity can shift by market due to wheelbase, body style, safety requirements, and emission considerations. Van configurations such as standard cargo, mid-size crew, or long-wheelbase passenger variants may have slightly different capacities.
- Europe and Asia: commonly reported around 65–70 L for many trims
- Middle East and Africa: often align with about 70 L, with some regional tweaks
- The exact figure for any specific Hiace model is best confirmed via
- the owner’s manual, the vehicle’s door jamb sticker, or Toyota’s official spec sheets
Checking the official brochure or the VIN-specific spec sheet will give you the precise tank capacity for your exact Hiace version.
How to verify the exact capacity
For accuracy, cross-check the following sources on your vehicle:
- Owner’s manual, under technical specifications
- Door jamb sticker near the driver’s seat or fuel-filler area
- Toyota’s official regional brochures or online spec sheets for your year/model
- VIN-based build sheet or dealership query for your exact configuration
Tank capacity can differ even within the same generation due to market-specific options, optional packs, or optional wheelbase choices.
Summary
In short, a modern Toyota Hiace typically uses a fuel tank around 70 liters, with common variations spanning roughly 65–70 liters depending on generation, engine, and market. For a precise figure, consult the vehicle’s owner’s manual, the door sticker, or official regional specifications for the exact model and configuration.
