How to figure out your 2016 Toyota Corolla’s gas tank size

If you’d like to dig in a little deeper in determining just how much gas your Corolla can hold, there are a few other ways that you can go about it:

Measure your gas tank

Grab a measuring tape and a calculator, and measure the width, height, and length of your gas tank. Multiply these together to get the volume in cubic inches, and then divide that number by 231, which is the number of cubic inches in a gallon. That’s your tank’s capacity in gallons.

Consult the owner’s manual

If you have your owner’s manual or can find it online, the gas tank capacity will be listed there. Look for a section on “capacities” or “specifications” and you should be on the right track.

Drive until the tank’s empty, then fill ‘er up

Last but not least, you can test your fuel tank capacity (and your risk tolerance) by driving until the fuel gauge hits empty, and then filling it up. This isn’t an exact method, and it’s certainly not without its dangers, so make sure you don’t drive for too long on empty!

How to save on fuel costs in your Corolla

One of the reasons for the Corolla’s enduring popularity is its fuel economy. On average, you can expect to get a combined 32 mpg from your trusty steed. But to get the absolute best mileage possible, here are a few tips to keep in mind:

Don’t neglect routine maintenance. Keeping up with all routine and recommended maintenance tasks will increase both the lifespan and the fuel economy of your Corolla.

Drive carefully. Slow, steady acceleration is not only safer, but it also takes less fuel.

Avoid idling, especially when it’s cold. Idling does nothing but burn gas, so avoid the temptation to let your car run for several minutes to warm it up.
