What that means for range and daily driving
Fuel tank capacity is not the same as range. The actual distance you can travel on a full tank depends on the engine, transmission, drivetrain, and your driving style. To estimate range, multiply the tank capacity by the vehicle’s miles-per-gallon rating for your typical driving conditions.
- With a combined fuel economy around 30 mpg, a full 13.2-gallon tank yields roughly 396 miles of range (13.2 × 30).
- With higher efficiency around 40 mpg, the same tank could offer approximately 528 miles (13.2 × 40).
In real-world driving, actual range will vary based on city vs. highway driving, traffic, climate control usage, and driving habits.
Practical notes for buyers and owners
When planning refueling stops, rely on the 13.2-gallon capacity as your baseline and monitor the car’s gauge along with your typical MPG. Consistent driving habits and maintenance can help maximize range per tank.
