Many probably will not agree to this solution, which means to give up their own convenience. But the use of subway cars or public transport is clearly a saving in your pocket. Now that spring comes, it would be to start using and bicycles, although this phenomenon is still too few followers.
2. Plan your route
Make sure you have a clear destination. Depending on this, you can plan your route easier, shortcuts are preferred to avoid congestion in the car will consume fuel in vain. Now it's time to rely on navigation systems, especially those that give you the best alternative in real time.
3. Check tire pressure
You should know that at the nominal neumflate tires can lead to increased consumption by about 3%. Therefore, it is best to check tire pressure as often as me, the nominal value by helping you get significantly less consumption. In addition to wear and even possible cauciururilor sharp bursts of rubber.
4. Get rid of unnecessary items in the car
Anything less means a mass in the lower car, which means lower consumption. It would be useful to get rid of things you do not need in everyday use - even if, taken separately, would be hilarious to think that the port of CDs or service manual could lead to lower consumption, if they collect can be reached a significant saving a few pounds, which means a few tens of grams per kilometer to save fuel.
5. Make a good aerodynamic car
Basically, this advice is aimed at those who always use the roof luggage boxes. We know that in terms of speed, even with increased consumption 3 litres/100 km, only aerodynamic reasons. Therefore, leave aside the convenience and use these devices only when you really need.
6. No engine speed
Try to keep your impulses under control, velocity or compete at traffic lights. Upon leaving the place less engine RPM and go easily from place to eat no more than necessary. In these times, the phrase "hurry slowly" should rule. Changing gear would be good to achieve the lower limit of the optimal speed (about 2500 rpm gasoline engines, diesel engines at 2,000 rpm respectively).
7. Use less air conditioning
Use air conditioning, especially in urban traffic conditions, an increase in consumption of litru/100 km on average. It is true that gives you comfort, but use it only where really necessary (demisting quickly or holding a glass of decent interior temperatures).
8. Turn off the engine at long breaks
Sounds like advice from "Uncle Elijah the toolshed, but in heavy traffic, many traffic lights, prove helpful for getting a more fuel efficient. It is, if you will, manual application of the automated system stopr / motor home, which begin to offer increasingly more producers on new cars.
9. Anticipate traffic
If you see the distance that the traffic light changes color to yellow, not much point to speed to get faster to light. If there are many cars in front of the column, have no meaning to sudden accelerations always be behind the front. Plus other examples of this kind, which can easily avoid unnecessary speeding car, which obviously means a decrease in consumption.
10. Avoid short trips by car
When the engine is cold, the car consumes more fuel until it reaches the optimal temperature fucţionare. If you did a very short road, take into account the ability to walk, if time is not the primary factor. Take just some calories, which is good for health, eventually.
Sorry for my poor english language. Cheers from Italy.
