Driving From Lagos To Calabar Without Refueling? by ibinaboonline(op): 3:34pm On May 01, 2023
Quick question: Can the Toyota Hilux, specifically the 2019 - 2023 models, travel from Lagos to Calabar on a full tank without needing to refuel mid-trip?

Gas have better mileage than electric na. If gas no fit do am, na electric go fit? Even Rivian R1T no fit. But I dey ask because I be automotive writer.

1. Use Google map to find the approx distance from Calabar to Lagos.

2. Google factory mpg and tank capacity of the vehicle in question..from there you can deduce how many miles per litre the vehicle can use on average

Convert the distance given by Google maps to Miles at the rate of 1.6km to a mile.

Divide the total mileage by the vehicle's mileage per litre of fuel.... If the vehicle goes 5 miles per litre, you don't need a lot of maths to know how many litres it will consume on the average for 500miles or whatever.

Other things being equal, with vehicle in good condition and minimum traffic, your answer should be quite approximate. Of course you can't be held accountable if vehicle is in bad state, a different vehicle is used for the journey, driver branches into one village to collect one nak for the road, or journey hooks for 12 hours at Redemption camp/Berger Traffic.

Una own be say once una get phone and small data, na to begin blog crap and copy/paste everywhere.. To do even small research be una like say dem dey comot one of una scrotum.

You will have to refuel.... You see the way that your car accelerate whenever you press that pedal, if you do it consistently while overtaking. The fuel wont get you to Lagos. Your speed will also affect the gas mileage.

Just budget 2 and half tank sha
In case of necessity
