Improving your car’s fuel efficiency can save money and reduce environmental impact. Here are a few tips to maximize your mileage:
Check Tire Pressure Regularly: Under-inflated tires cause your engine to work harder. Keeping them properly inflated can improve fuel economy by up to 3%.
Reduce Weight: Remove unnecessary items from your car. Extra weight can lower fuel efficiency, especially in smaller vehicles.
Maintain a Steady Speed: Avoid rapid acceleration or braking. Smooth driving can significantly improve fuel consumption.
Use Cruise Control: On highways, using cruise control helps maintain a constant speed, which saves gas.
Keep Your Car Tuned Up: Regular maintenance, like oil changes and air filter replacements, ensures that your engine runs efficiently, leading to better fuel economy.
Avoid Excessive Idling: Turn off your engine if you’re waiting for more than a minute or two. Idling burns more fuel than restarting the engine.
