Fuel Tank:






A steel fuel tank is located under the floor of the rear seats to provide increased safety and increase the amount of luggage compartment space.

In order to reduce, the fuel pump, fuel filter and fuel pressure regulator have been integrated into a single fuel pump module.

The adoption of a fuel pump module makes it possible to place the fuel filter and the fuel pressure regulator inside the fuel tank, improving safety in the event of an impact.

The fuel tank has been equipped with a fuel tank rollover valve assembly which incorporates a fuel-off valve to prevent fuel from leaking out in the event of a collision for adjusting the pressure inside the fuel tank.
