    Same size as a C1, 107 and Aygo from which I once managed 578 miles!

    Some tips:
    1) never fill the tank completely full unless you're going on a very long drive - the extra weight means your MPG won't be as good - half a tank or slightly over half at most.
    .


    The weight saving between filling and half filling your car is quarter of a tankful, about 10kg on an average sized tank. It really won't make any difference to mpg and certainly won't make up for the inconvenience of filling up twice as often.
