Why is it so difficult for a car to indicate the amount of petrol left in litres?

Is it really that difficult? won’t that just require a pressure sensor at the bottom of the tank?

I think it’s possible. I just think the reason why car manufacturers don’t do it is because of the expense. Why spend the money on that when all you need is a pointer that says E when you are about to run out. Or modern cars have a display that says you can drive x many more miles before you are empty.

I think the fuel gauge is really more of a way to say how far away from Empty you are and not so much an acurate read on how much fuel you have.
