Gallons left and the distance they cover at each mark on the fuel gauge, at EPA city and highway mileage. At the combined rating of 19 MPG, a full 20.0-gallon tank covers about 380 miles.
| Gauge | Gallons | Highway miles | City miles |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full | 20.0 | 440 | 340 |

Over 15,000 miles a year (the EPA's yearly estimate) this configuration uses about 789 gallons, roughly 39 full tanks.
Fuel gauges aren't perfectly linear and the low-fuel light comes on with a few gallons still in the tank, so plan your stop before the last eighth.
