Fuel Economy
Several factors contribute to your vehicle’s fuel economy,
including maintenance of your vehicle, driving style,
environmental conditions, vehicle weight and vehicle
aerodynamics. Below are tips on how to help improve
fuel economy:
§
Keep your vehicle in good condition with regular maintenance
§
Don’t let the engine idle longer than necessary
§
Drive at a moderate speed, accelerating smoothly
§
Keep tires inflated to the recommended pressure
§
Travel lightly, without carrying unnecessary weight in
your vehicle
§
Avoid placing large or heavy items on roof racks
§
Avoid hilly, winding or poorly maintained roads
REMINDER: Driving range varies depending on a
vehicle’s fuel tank size, e.g. , 12-gal. vs. 24-gal.. Even
though two vehicles’ MPG may be the same , the
vehicle with the larger tank will have greater range.
