Never enough capacity with a factory tank for the places i like to go.
Ahmed, you might try calling Genright Off Road to see if they are making a bigger tank for the JL.
I have there 31 gallon tank in my LJ and consider it one of my best mods.

I'd like a range of about 400 miles, that way I'd only need to fill up 75% as much. I'd use my spare time to learn the banjo.

The current fuel tank size is actually one of my biggest gripes about the JL. That and the electronic gauge decides 19 gal = 21.5 gal.

Just got a 2019 sport jl.... had a 2014 ram prior... ram's tank was twice the size but i am getting a little better gas mileage from the JL, so there's little difference except i habe too fuel up twice as much. ...

I would average 11.6L/100km with the ram and so far, 10.9L/100km with the jeep. ...

Would like a bigger tank!

i’m thinking the wind sail on top of your jeep might be the cause for needing more gas in the tank… lol

Hello all
Is there anyone who is disturbed by the volume of the gas tank on JL/JLU?
Would you prefer a larger tank volume? Or do you think it's enough?
21.5 gallons on my 2020 jlu sport 2.0 liter turbo

After a bit of searching I am going with the strap two FuelPax to the tire method. (https://amzn.to/3loU8Pv). What I like about this idea is I can take it off easily when I don't need it. If I was overlanding full time, I would pick something very different. For me as a weekend explorer it seems the best choice.

I watch a few reviews on the YouTube and it seems to be sturdy enough.

So what is the official fuel capacity? Someone has to have driven until fumes to test this.
