Why is there a fuel tank cover on the left? And some right?

Each oil-carrying vehicle will have a fuel tank and a fuel tank cap. I believe most people don't have a cold for these, but do you really understand the fuel tank? Why are some fuel tank caps left and some right? The fuel tank port is also stipulated and designed?

In the United States, people's ideas are more casual. If they all put their fuel tanks to the side, they will not only be easy to line up when refueling, but also waste the area of ​​gas stations. Therefore, there are no hard laws on the mainland of the United States. Specifies which side of the fuel tank cover must be on.

The direction of the tank port is still well documented.

In general, the direction of the tank port is related to the driving position. The left side of the fuel tank is designed on the right side of the tank to facilitate the driver to get off the gas, such as Germany; the right side of the country's fuel tank cap is often on the left, For example, Japan.

The position of the fuel tank should also be chosen in consideration of the safety of the driver. Therefore, it is necessary to extend the distance as far as possible and select the position of the diagonal line to reduce the risk.

I think that for the understanding of the fuel tank, everyone has their own understanding, design always has a certain basis, rather than random guesses.
