2. Avoid pointless actions such as revving up when at
traffic lights or before stopping the engine. The latter
action, like double-declutching, is unnecessary and
causes increased fuel consumption and pollution.
3.Gear selection: select a high gear as soon as possi-
ble (taking into account normal engine operation and
traffic conditions) without pushing the engine to high
revs during the intermediate gears. Using low gears
at high revs to get lively acceleration increases fuel
consumption, harmful emissions and engine wear.
4.Vehicle speed: fuel consumption increases expo-
nentially as the speed of the vehicle increases. Keep
your speed moderate and as even as possible, avoid-
ing unnecessary braking and acceleration, which
cause excessive fuel consumption and increased
emissions. Keeping a safe distance from the vehicle in
front helps to maintain a steady speed.
5.Acceleration: accelerating violently severely affects
consumption and emissions. Acceleration should be
gradual and should not exceed the maximum engine
torque rate. 5. Remove roof racks or ski racksafter use. These
accessories reduce the vehicle’s aerodynamic pene-
tration and have a negative effect on fuel consump-
tion.
6. It is better to use a trailer to transport particularly
bulky objects.
7. Use the vehicle’s air vents if possible: travelling with
the windows open impairs the aerodynamics.
8. Only use electrical devices for the amount of time
needed. The heated rear window, auxiliary head-
lights, windscreen wipers and fan heater use up
a considerable amount of current, causing increased
fuel consumption (up to +25% in the urban cycle).
9. Using the climate control leads to higher fuel con-
sumption (on average up to +30%). If the tempera-
ture outside is not too extreme, try and use the air
vents.
Driving style
1. After starting the engineyou should drive away
immediately and slowly, avoiding high revs. Do not
warm up the engine at low or high revs when the
vehicle is stationary; this causes the engine to warm
up more slowly, thereby increasing fuel consumption,
emissions and mechanical component wear.
