How big is the gas tank on a 2008 Chevy Uplander?

The gas tank capacity is about 25 gallons (approximately 95 liters).


This size reflects the standard fuel system used on the 2008 Uplander, GM’s mid‑2000s minivan. While 25 gallons is the typical specification, slight variations can occur due to packaging, options, or production tolerances. For the exact figure on a specific vehicle, consult the owner’s manual or the original window sticker.


Official spec and where to verify


To confirm the tank size for your particular vehicle, these sources are most reliable:



  • Owner's manual for the 2008 Uplander (fuel tank capacity listing).

  • Original window sticker (Monroney label) on the vehicle.

  • Reputable automotive data sites such as Edmunds, Kelley Blue Book, or AutoTrader that archive spec sheets.

  • GM service literature or parts catalogs that list fuel system specifications.


Note: Tank capacity is typically listed to the nearest whole gallon and may be rounded on labels or in databases. Packaging or trim differences can yield very small variances.


Practical range and fuel economy


Fuel efficiency snapshot


EPA estimates for the 2008 Uplander vary by engine and drivetrain, but the minivan generally falls in the mid-teens to low-20s mpg range in mixed driving. With a 25-gallon tank, that typically translates to several hundred miles per fill, depending on conditions and driving style.


In everyday use, plan for roughly 400–600 miles of driving per tank when conditions are mixed (city and highway) and the vehicle is running close to its typical efficiency.


Summary


In short, the 2008 Chevy Uplander typically uses a 25-gallon (about 95 liters) fuel tank. For the exact specification on a particular vehicle, check the owner’s manual or the window sticker, as there may be minor variations due to packaging or production tolerances.
