How many gallons is a full tank in a Toyota Corolla?
Most Toyota Corolla configurations fuel-tank at about 13.2 gallons when full, with hybrids typically around 11.9 gallons. Exact capacity varies by model year and market, so check your door jamb label or owner's manual for the precise figure.
Capacity by model and configuration
The following estimates reflect common specifications for recent Corolla models in the United States. To confirm the exact number for your car, reference the owner's manual or the fuel-filler door sticker.
- Non-hybrid Corolla sedan and hatchback: 13.2 gallons (50 liters).
- Corolla Hybrid: about 11.9 gallons (45 liters).
- Note: Some older generations or non-U.S. markets may have slightly different capacities (approximately 12–13.2 gallons) depending on trim and packaging.
These figures are intended as a practical guide; actual capacity may vary by year, trim, and regional specifications.
Why the numbers vary
The capacity differences stem from packaging decisions and safety considerations. Hybrids often use a smaller tank to reduce weight and preserve interior space, while non-hybrid models maintain the larger 13.2-gallon tank in most markets.
How to verify for your vehicle
To be certain, check the door jamb sticker on the driver's side, or consult the owner's manual. A Toyota dealer can also confirm the exact capacity for your VIN.
Summary
In summary, a full tank in a typical current-generation Toyota Corolla is about 13.2 gallons for non-hybrids and about 11.9 gallons for hybrids; exact figures depend on year, trim, and market, so verify with the official labels or manual.
