Tagged: 0 Thread(s). Quoted: 0 Post(s). The Prius gas tank is fitted with an internal bladder to prevent gas fumes from leaking into the air. It does create the problem of inconsistent gasoline fill-ups. 1 - The back pressure from the tank can cause early shutoff of the nossle. (don't overfill as gasoline can spurt out due to bladder pressure). 2 - In cold weather, the bladder gets stiff reducing the effective tank capacity. As was stated before the nominal tank capacity is 11.9 gallons.
After all, the Prius c gets the same overall fuel economy as the regular Prius -- an astounding 50 miles per gallon -- yet its base price is more than $5,000 lower.he Prius c doesn't have the smooth ride of the regular Prius. They're different cars underneath, and the Prius c's Yaris genes don't do it any favors. It's not as quiet at cruising speeds, either.
