Most consumers, in addition to higher fuel-efficiency figures, are now demanding bigger fuel tanks in order to increase the range. The maximum rate of growth will be seen in the 45l-70l capacity tanks, on account of upsizing of the fuel tank capacities in 4-wheelers.

In the developing nations, small hatchbacks feature small engines and fuel tanks with a capacity below 45 liters.
