Fewer short trips
F uel consumptio n will always be relatively high on short
trips .
-Try to avoi d drivi ng s ho rt dis tances wit h a cold engine .
The engine and catalytic converter have to reach their optima l oper­
ating temperature
t o reduce f uel consum ptio n a nd noxio us em is ­
sions effectively.
Just after starting, a cold engine in a mid -s ize car on ly achieves a fuel
economy of 6-8 m iles per gallon (30- 40 l/l00km) . After about a ha lf
a mile, fuel economy climbs to 12 mpg (20 l/100 km). After abo ut
2 .5 m iles ( 4 km), t he engine i s at its p rop er operat ing temper ature
and fue l economy has reached a normal level. So yo u can see that you
sho uld avoi d short t rips whenever possible.
T he
out side temperature is a lso c ritical in this regard. Your car
cons umes mo re fue l in the winter than in the summer. •
