Fuel tank size

Hey guys,

Was looking at the french site that has the comparison of the Evoque vs BMW and it specifies that the Evoque has a 50 litre tank. That sounds really small. The FR2 has a 68L. Anyone heard what the actual size is.

Cheers

Don't worry, even at 50l it's soooo light and green that you'll get 900 miles to the tank !

900miles - really

I hope it's not 50l as that would put my off buying one a bit.

In my FFRR I was getting about 600 miles to a tank and I am currently getting more in the new car. 50l means usable 40/45l which even at 45mpg would not give enough range.

I'd feel like I was spending half my life in the fuel station!

Agree with you Fox, it needs to have a 600 mile range at least which would mean a 65lt tank if it can do 45mpg. In my current TDv8 FFRR I can drive from Glasgow to Southampton or London on 3/4 of a tank (Ok so it's getting on for 100ltr tank) - I suppose they make the tank a bit small so that the weight is kept down and thus there is less CO2 penalty

So what's the official word on this. What size is it?

Hi A swift Google shows tank size at 60ltrs - not too shabby

So that's 570 miles on a full tank in the sd4 auto if the figures are true. Which they probably not. £82 fill up. Not too bad bit not spectacular

And now time for straight answers:
Fuel Tank size for Diesel Engines: 60 liters
Fuel Tank size for si4 Petrol: 70 liters
It's written in my price list.

Thanks. Be great for the sd4 to have a 70 litre tank
