How many Litres is the Toyota Corolla?
The Toyota Corolla's fuel tank capacity is not a single universal figure; it varies by model year, body style, and market. In general, the sedan version typically holds about 50 litres, while hatchback and hybrid variants sit in the low-to-mid 40s litres. For an exact figure, check the specific model’s manual or official specification sheet.
Variations by model and market
Fuel-tank capacity changes with body style and drivetrain. Toyota designs different tank sizes to balance range, weight, and cabin space for different regions and generations. The figures below are representative ranges for recent models and may differ with new releases.
What counts as capacity
The numbers listed refer to total tank capacity—the maximum volume the tank can hold when filled. Usable fuel is typically slightly less due to reserve margins and design considerations.
- Gasoline Corolla Sedan (most global markets): roughly 50 litres (about 13.2 US gallons).
- Gasoline Corolla Hatchback: roughly 42–45 litres (about 11–12 US gallons).
- Corolla Hybrid (latest generations): roughly 43–45 litres (about 11.4–11.9 US gallons).
These figures are approximate and pertain to recent generations. Exact capacity can vary by year, trim, and regional specification; always verify with official sources for your exact vehicle.
How to verify the exact figure for your car
To confirm the precise fuel tank capacity for your Corolla, rely on sources tied to your exact model year and market. The most reliable starting points are:
- Owner's manual for your vehicle
- Toyota’s official regional site or model-spec sheets for your year
- Vehicle window sticker or door jamb placard that lists tank capacity
Cross-checking these sources will ensure you have the correct litres for your specific car configuration.
Summary
The Toyota Corolla does not have a single universal litres figure. In modern gasoline sedans, the tank is typically around 50 litres; hatchbacks are in the low-to-mid 40s, and hybrids are generally in the low 40s litres. Always verify the exact capacity using the vehicle’s manual or official spec sheets for your market and year.
