How big is the gas tank of a 2021 Toyota Camry?

A hybrid 2021 Toyota Camry has a 13.2-gallon gas tank. An all-wheel-drive version uses a 14.4-gallon gas tank. And finally, a 15.8-gallon gas tank is available if you choose a V6 engine or an automatic transmission with front-wheel drive.

If you take trim levels into account, things get even more complicated. Here's a breakdown:

Gas tank size	Trims	Powertrain	Transmission	Drivetrain
13.2 Gallons	LE, SE, XLE, XSE	Hybrid	CVT	Front-wheel-drive
14.4 Gallons	LE, SE, SE Nightshade, XLE, XSE	2.5L inline-four	Eight-speed automatic	All-wheel-drive

Wow, that's a lot of options! Of course, a shared gas tank doesn't mean two trims can go the same distance—the 2021 Camry’s full driving range stretches from 489 to 699 miles! How far you can go depends on your gas tank size, driving habits, and mileage, which we discuss below.

How to check your 2021 Toyota Camry’s gas tank size

If you're not sure which trims and options apply to your vehicle, you can always measure its gas tank yourself. Here's how:

Measure the gas tank

The first thing you'll need is a measuring tape and a calculator if you have one. Next, measure the width, length, and height of your vehicle's gas tank in inches. Multiply your measurements and divide the result by 231 (the number of cubic inches in a gallon) to get the gas tank’s volume.

Check your owner’s manual

Every car’s owner's manual outlines the gas tank size alongside other basic information, like

what kind of gas you should pick for your car

. If you’ve lost or misplaced your manual,

Toyota's online owners' resource page

has a copy for every model dating back to the early 1980s.

Drive ‘til empty, then fill it up

Here’s the easiest (and riskiest) way to find out how much gas can fit in your tank:

drive as far as you can on an empty fuel tank

. If you’re lucky enough to run out when at the fuel pump, you'll have a pretty accurate measurement. But, as we’ve discussed, there are far easier ways to check.

How to save on fuel costs in a Toyota Camry

2021 Toyota Camry gas mileage is pretty good, with the cheapest model advertising 32 combined mpg. It gets even better if you can afford the hybrid version, which gets 52 mpg combined. Even the thirsty Toyota Camry LE V6 and

Toyota Camry SE V6

manage a decent 26 combined mpg.

Here’s the EPA fuel economy rating for every version of the 2021 Toyota Camry:

Model and trims	Powertrain	Transmission	MPG (city/highway/combined)
Toyota Camry Hybrid LE	2.4L four-cylinder gas engine/electric motor	CVT	51/53/52
Toyota Camry Hybrid SE, XLE, XSE	2.4L four-cylinder gas engine/electric motor	CVT	44/47/46
Toyota Camry LE, SE, SE Nightshade,	2.5L inline-four	Eight-speed automatic	28/39/32
Toyota Camry LE AWD, SE AWD, SE Nightshade AWD, XLE AWD, XSE AWD	2.5L inline-four	Eight-speed automatic	25/34/29
Toyota Camry TRD V6	3.5L V6	Eight-speed automatic	22/31/25
Toyota Camry XLE, XSE	2.5L inline-four	Eight-speed automatic	27/38/31
Toyota Camry XLE V6, XSE V6	3.5L V6	Eight-speed automatic	22/33/26

And here are a few tips to maximize your vehicle’s fuel economy:

Perform regular maintenance. When you service your Camry, you don't just keep it going, you also keep it at peak efficiency.

Take your foot off the gas. The more you step on the gas pedal, the more gas you use! At stop signs and red lights, accelerate gently and take your time.

Put on a sweater. There’s nothing worse than sitting in a cold car, except getting a huge gas bill. When it's cold outside, try driving gently rather than idling to warm up your car.
