Efficient Driving Tips
Maintain steady speed
Driving at a constant speed uses up to 20% less fuel than frequent acceleration and braking.
Check tyre pressure
Under-inflated tyres increase fuel consumption by up to 3%. Check monthly.
Remove excess weight
Every 50kg reduces fuel efficiency by about 2%. Empty your boot of unnecessary items.
Use engine braking
Lift off the accelerator early when approaching traffic. Modern cars cut fuel injection when coasting in gear.
Don't overfill
Filling past the first click wastes fuel through evaporation and overflow.
Avoid premium unless needed
Most cars run perfectly on standard unleaded. Check your manual before paying extra.
