Being picky here...
Ur quattro fuel tank capacity
90 litres = 19.8 Imperial gallons = 23.8 US gallons
Between my last two fills I got approx 400 miles of general driving from
16.5 Imperial gallons. This would give me 480 miles to an empty tank. If I
drove with a really light right foot I could get more but I wouldn't enjoy
myself half as much.
