4.Subtract your initial odometer readingfrom the current odometer reading.
5.Calculate fuel economy by dividingmiles travelled by gallons used (ForMetric: Multiply litres used by 100, thendivide by kilometres travelled).
Keep a record for at least one month andrecord the type of driving (city ormotorway). This provides an accurateestimate of your vehicle’s fuel economyunder current driving conditions.Additionally, keeping records duringsummer and winter show how temperatureimpacts fuel economy. In general, lowertemperatures mean lower fuel economy.
