5 Tips for Fuel Economy

There are many ways to achieve this and all without costing you a penny.

Drive consistently

When you're on the road, keeping your car at a steady speed will help you boost the vehicle's fuel economy. While this is sometimes not always possible - for example, in the stop-start traffic of rush hour or when there are lots of junctions and roundabouts - by avoiding accelerating too rapidly or breaking too heavily, you could save yourself fuel costs. Manoeuvres like speeding away at the lights and not planning ahead resulting in heavy breaking use up to 60% more fuel. So always try to slow to a break and gently build up your car's speed.

Handle the gears right

By being in the highest gear possible, when it's safe and advisable to do so, you could make up to 15% fuel savings. Changing between 2000 and 3000 rpm means your car uses less fuel, and by driving between these revs you maximise fuel economy.

Be legal

Driving at 70 mph uses between 10% and 20% less fuel compared to driving at 80 mph. And the time you save by exceeding the speed limit is fairly negligible, especially when you consider the extra fuel cost involved. Similarly, driving at 50 mph is even better for your car's fuel economy so when you're not in a hurry, are stuck behind a lorry, or in a restricted zone, enjoy driving at this speed knowing you're using 20% to 30% less fuel than when you travel at 70 mph.

Check the tyres

You should regularly check the pressure of your car's tyres as under-inflated tyres increases fuel consumption by up to 5%. Check with your car manufacturer's guide to ensure you don't over-inflate the tyres as this leads to a loss of grip, while tyres that are a bit deflated require the engine to use more power.

Avoid short trips

A cold car engine uses about twice as much fuel as an engine that is warmed up, which is why you'll increase your fuel economy by decreasing the number of short driving trips you take. Instead, try to walk if the destination is local or combine a few short trips into one longer drive.
