My Toyota Corolla car fuel gauge was like these when we reached Ibadan from Abuja.

But we refilled as a precaution but when we get to lagos the driver said the full tank would have been a enough to take us to lagos even if we didn't refill in Ibadan.


Lagos to Abuja was 748 kilometers, more than 11hrs.

I think it should considering what it consumed to Ibadan

Omo I must get a corolla
Their fuel consumption is no longer heresy
Btw which year is yours op

I'm not sure but people tend to generalized all Corollas to be fuel saving cars.

I want to contest this but I am not sure

not same. But 2005 seems to have more fuel economy. likewise Honda civic 2007

What is the vehicle fuel tank capacity?
Engine capacity? We need to know them at least.

The tank consumes between 54 and 55 liters

I don't know much about engine

Scared huh!

I don't think it is possible sha.

But I do when Peugeot 406 came out they claimed one full tank took them from Lagos to Kaduna but I have not seen nor heard anyone visually confirm that.

Then I know those port crook drivers fuel any where from Ife upwards after all their speeding from Lagos where I know they still fueled at Conoil or so before the start flying.

So, I find it difficult to believe

Your reasons are valid

Ok

I’ve done the drive from Abuja to Lagos a few times, and a full tank usually gets me there without any issues. My car is fairly fuel-efficient, and I’ve never had to stop for fuel along the way. It's about 760 km, so depending on your vehicle, you should be good to go as long as you’ve got a full tank at the start. Just make sure to keep an eye on the fuel gauge, especially as you get closer to Lagos!

even my Camry 09 saves fuel a lot, I don’t think a Corolla will do better, I’m even surprised. Just get a car with good engine and you’ll be fine

You are saying that you used one full tank from Abuja to Lagos? Oya tell us which car is that? And from where did your full tank start, not the one you started counting from Lokoja where you fueled

My current camry already saves fuel per other standard but I need something more..
8k fuel per day just to and fro work...
I must be smarter than 2025 expenses

Thanks for the input

Make una no derail the thread. Has anyone done full tank from Abuja to Lagos or Lagos to Abuja?

Budget 1 full tank and half depending on your destination. If you’re goin as a far as Kubwa, Bwari you should have enough fuel to take you home from Lagos
