The fuel tanks of most domestic cars are set on the left, mainly because Chinese cars drive on the right. The cab is designed on the left. The fuel tank port is designed on the same side as the cab to allow the owner to observe the fuel tank in time. Whether the port is open and whether there is an oil leakage problem. The cab of foreign cars is on the right, and the fuel tank port will be shifted to the right accordingly.
German cars and Japanese cars have different distribution of fuel tank ports, mainly because Germans and Japanese have different driving habits. Japanese cars set the fuel tank port on the left from the beginning. Over the years, Japanese cars have not undergone much modification, and the fuel tank port has been retained as the left design.
The German fuel tank port has always been designed on the right, so after the introduction of German cars into the country, the fuel tank port was not specifically redesigned, and the fuel tank port was also placed on the right. In fact, the fuel tank port on the left and on the right has little effect on the owner. The owner only needs to know the location of the fuel tank port in advance.
Some car owners do not understand why the charging port of an electric car is set in the front, and the fuel tank port of the car is set in the back, because of the gravity distribution. People often sit in the front of the vehicle, and the weight is relatively high, and the fuel tank ports are distributed at the back of the vehicle, which is just a good balance. In short, whether the fuel tank ports are distributed on the left or on the right does not have a big impact on the car owner, and we don't need to be too serious.
