How many gallons does a Chevy Uplander hold?

The Uplander's fuel tank capacity is about 19 gallons (roughly 72 liters).


Understanding the exact capacity helps with planning trips, estimating range, and accounting for variations across model years and trims. This article outlines the typical capacity, possible variations, and what that means for real-world fueling and range.


Typical capacity


For most Chevy Uplander models used in the U.S., the standard fuel tank is around 19 gallons. This is the commonly cited figure in owner manuals and service guides and translates to roughly 72 liters. Tank size can influence driving range and fuel planning for everyday use and longer trips.


Variations by year and configuration


While 19 gallons is the common figure, some Uplander configurations or regional variations may list a slightly larger capacity, often cited as about 20 gallons. Differences can arise from engine choices, emission equipment, or optional features that slightly alter the tank size or the measurement reference used by manufacturers.


Confirm your vehicle's exact capacity


Always check the specific vehicle's data label on the fuel door or the owner's manual for the exact capacity tied to your VIN and trim, especially if you own a non-U.S. market unit or a less common configuration.


Estimated range implications


With typical U.S. highway and city driving, a 19-gallon tank generally supports a range in the ballpark of about 300–380 miles, depending on driving conditions, vehicle load, and engine efficiency. If your Uplander uses a different tank size, recalculate by multiplying the gallons by your vehicle's miles-per-gallon figure to estimate range.


Bottom line


In most cases, plan on a 19-gallon fuel tank for a Chevy Uplander, with the possibility of around 20 gallons on some variants. For precise figures, consult the door jamb label or owner’s manual.


Summary


The Chevy Uplander typically holds 19 gallons of fuel (about 72 liters), with slight exceptions depending on year or trim. Always verify with your vehicle’s specifications for accurate planning and range estimates.
