Well don't wait for the low fuel lamp to light up. Fill up before it reached the empty mark.

- there should be 7-9ltrs fuel left when low fuel warning lamp glows at the first time.

how much kms..can be covered after 'low fuel indication'
- Its depend upon your car what milegae your getting.. multiply with 7-8.

also i10 is said to have 35lts capacity...but whenever i fill up the tank from E to F...it measures upto 22-24lts...(does i10 have around 10trs of reserve petrol??)
- Thats correct, i10 has 35ltrs tank and it drinks 22-24ltrs only when your fuel indicator's niddle is above the E mark (or in the red mark), I would suggest to refil it when quarter is remaining.

Hi Pratik,

Above are my answers, these are just my observations and experience with my own car so the facts & figures may conflict betweetn 2 different cars.

Hi Pratik,

You can easily drive 35-50 kms after the fuel indictor light comes on.

Don't take risk by driving more than this
