1 | Avoid High Speeds | As your speed increases, your aerodynamic drag increases in an exponential fashion. Driving 62 mph (100 km/h) vs 75 mph (120 km/h) will reduce fuel consumption by about 15%. |
2 | Do Not Accelerate or Brake Hard | By anticipating the traffic and applying slow steady acceleration and braking, fuel economy may increase by as much as 20%. |
3 | Keep Tires Properly Inflated | Keep tire air pressure at the level recommended by your vehicle manufacturer. A single tire under inflated by 2 PSI, increases fuel consumption by 1%. |
4 | Use A/C Sparingly | When the air conditioner is on it puts extra load on the engine forcing more fuel to be used (by about 20%). The defrost position on most vehicles also uses the air conditioner. |
5 | Keep Windows Closed | Windows open, especially at highway speeds, increase drag and result in decreased fuel economy of up to 10%. |
6 | Service Vehicle Regularly | Proper maintenance avoids poor fuel economy related to dirty air filters, old spark plugs or low fluid levels. |
7 | Use Cruise Control | Maintaining a constant speed over long distances often saves gas. |
8 | Avoid Heavy Loads | Remove the sand bags from your trunk in the spring and pack lightly for long trips. |
9 | Avoid Long Idles | If you anticipate being stopped for more than 1 minute, shut off the car. Restarting the car uses less fuel than letting it idle for this time. |
10 | Purchase a Fuel Efficient Vehicle | When buying a new vehicle examine the vehicle's rated fuel efficiency. Usually choosing a small vehicle with a manual transmission will provide you with great fuel economy. |
