Overview of the RSX and why tank size matters


The RSX is Acura’s compact sports coupe produced from 2002 to 2006, known for its balanced handling and sporty chassis. The size of the fuel tank affects how often you’ll need to refuel and what kind of driving range you can expect between gas stations.


Official capacity by trim

  • RSX Base: 13.2 gallons (50 liters)

  • RSX Type-S: 13.2 gallons (50 liters)


Note: Some market-specific listings or older references may round differently (up to about 13.7 gallons in some listings), but the most widely cited capacity for US-spec RSX models is 13.2 gallons.


What this means for drivers


With a 13.2-gallon tank and typical fuel economy figures for the RSX in the mid-20s miles per gallon, drivers can expect a practical range of roughly 300–380 miles per tank, depending on year, trim, and driving conditions.
