How big is the gas tank on a 2014 Ford Fusion?

As one of Ford’s popular sedans for nearly 15 years, the Fusion was a peppy car with plenty of engine options and trims—including a bit of variation in gas tank sizes. For the 2014 model year, the S,

, and

Titanium

trims had a fuel tank capacity of 16.5 gallons—but that increased to 17.5 gallons on the Titanium trim with the turbocharged engine.

This is pretty typical for most Fusion models, though different years—like the 2012 model—came standard with a 17.5-gallon tank.

How to check your 2014 Ford Fusion’s gas tank size

If you still have uncertainties about your Fusion’s gas tank capacity, fear not—there are a couple of methods of figuring it out yourself.

Measure the gas tank

If you want to verify the tank’s volume for yourself, just grab your measuring tape and a calculator. All you need to do to find the magic number is multiply your gas tank's width, length, and height, then divide the result by 231—the number of cubic inches in one gallon.

Check your owner’s manual

Your owner’s manual will also provide you with a definitive volume. Scan the index or table of contents for “fuel tank capacity” or similar phrasing to find your answer.

Drive till empty, then fill it up

If you find yourself without an owner’s manual or measuring tape, you can always find out the approximate size of your Fusion’s gas tank by driving your car until the fuel gauge hits “E.” This may not give you the precise measurement, but you’ll get a pretty good idea of the general size. Make sure you’re not driving on empty for very long, though!

How to save on fuel costs in a Ford Fusion

On average, the 2014 Fusions with regular gas engines are expected to get up to 25 mpg in the city and 37 mpg on the highway—but this will depend on your engine and trim choices. This is average fuel economy for a sedan, but if you want to get even better mileage, upgrade to the

2014 Fusion Hybrid

which will get you about a combined41 mpg.

No matter which Fusion you’re driving, everyone could stand to save a few bucks on gas these days. Check out these pointers to cut back on your fuel expenses:

Stay on top of maintenance. Keep your fuel economy at optimal levels by preventing unnecessary wear and tear build-up.

Drive cautiously. Driving too fast or accelerating quickly too often can increase your Fusion’s fuel consumption.

Don’t idle, especially in winter. Idling burns up gas, so drive your Fusion gently to warm it up on cold mornings rather than letting it sit and run.
