How many miles can a 2013 Camaro go?
A 2013 Camaro typically travels about 350 to 550 miles on a full tank, depending on the model and driving conditions.
The Camaro lineup for 2013 offered two main engine choices—the economical V6 and the more powerful V8 SS—both sharing a relatively large fuel tank. To estimate range, drivers look at the tire-to-tank combination of fuel economy and capacity. Below is a breakdown by trim and what you can expect in real-world driving.
Fuel economy and tank size
Understanding range starts with the fuel tank capacity and EPA fuel-economy estimates. The 2013 Camaro generally uses an 18.5-gallon tank. EPA numbers vary by trim and transmission, but typical figures are:
- V6 Camaro (3.6L) around 19 mpg city and 30 mpg highway.
- V8 Camaro SS (6.2L) around 16 mpg city and 28 mpg highway.
Using those figures with an 18.5-gallon tank yields the following rough ranges.
- V6: City driving ≈ 351 miles; highway driving ≈ 555 miles; combined driving ≈ 420–430 miles.
- V8 SS: City driving ≈ 296 miles; highway driving ≈ 518 miles; combined driving ≈ 395–405 miles.
Note: Real-world range varies with driving style, terrain, payload, and whether the transmission is manual or automatic. The numbers above assume a full tank and typical driving conditions for each trim.
How to maximize range on a 2013 Camaro
The next section offers practical steps to stretch the miles per tank, regardless of whether you own a V6 or a V8.
- Maintain proper tire pressure to reduce rolling resistance.
- Use cruise control on highways when conditions permit to keep steady speeds.
- Avoid aggressive acceleration and excessive idling, which waste fuel.
- Plan routes that favor highways over stop-and-go city driving when possible.
Applying these practices can help you approach the EPA estimates and enjoy more miles per tank in everyday driving.
Frequently asked questions
What is the fuel tank size for the 2013 Camaro?
The 2013 Camaro generally uses an 18.5-gallon fuel tank across the main trim lines.
Do driving conditions really change range that much?
Yes. Highway cruising, light throttle, and steady speeds typically yield higher miles per gallon and longer range than urban driving with frequent stops and aggressive acceleration.
