It varies by type of gas, but gasoline has a density of about 800 kilograms/cubic meter.

1 metric tonne = 1000 kilograms
1000 kilograms / 800 kilograms/cubic meter = 1.25 cubic meters

Then multiply by 1000 to convert cubic meter to liters.

1.25 cubic meter = 1,250 liter

You can use the volume conversion page to convert cubic meters to liters, gallons, etc.
