Your vehicle has a 18.6 gallon (70.4L)
fuel tank capacity. If your vehicle has
a yellow ring around the fuel inlet, you
have a flex fuel vehicle and should use

requirements for flex fuel vehicles. Refer
to the Fuel and Refueling chapter of your
Owner’s Manual.
Non-flex fuel vehicles use only “Regular”
unleaded gasoline with an octane rating
of 87 or higher. Do not use e85 fuels
because your vehicle was not designed
