Follow these easy-to-use Fuel Efficient Driving
Tips to help you achieve the most fuel economy
from your vehicle.
1.Use Smooth Accelerator and Brake
Pedal Application
●Avoid rapid starts and stops.
●Use smooth, gentle accelerator and
brake application whenever possible.
●Maintain constant speed while commut-
ing and coast whenever possible.
2.Maintain Constant Speed
●Look ahead to try and anticipate and mini-
mize stops.
●Synchronizing your speed with traffic
lights allows you to reduce your number
of stops.
●Maintaining a steady speed can minimize
red light stops and improve fuel effi-
ciency.
3.Use Air Conditioning (A/C) at Higher
Vehicle Speeds
●Below 40 mph (64 km/h), it is more effi-
cient to open windows to cool the vehicle
due to reduced engine load.●Above 40 mph (64 km/h), it is more effi-
cient to use A/C to cool the vehicle due to
increased aerodynamic drag.
●Recirculating the cool air in the cabin
when the A/C is on reduces cooling load.
4.Drive at Economical Speeds and Dis-
tances
●Observing the speed limit and not ex-
ceeding 60 mph (97 km/h) (where legally
allowed) can improve fuel efficiency due
to reduced aerodynamic drag.
●Maintaining a safe following distance be-
hind other vehicles reduces unnecessary
braking.
●Safely monitoring traffic to anticipate
changes in speed permits reduced brak-
ing and smooth acceleration changes.
●Select a gear range suitable to road con-
ditions.
5.Use Cruise Control
●Using cruise control during highway driv-
ing helps maintain a steady speed.
●Cruise control is particularly effective in
providing fuel savings when driving on flat
terrains.6.Plan for the Shortest Route
●Utilize a map or navigation system to de-
termine the best route to save time.
7.Avoid Idling
●Shutting off your engine when safe for
stops exceeding 30–60 seconds saves
fuel and reduces emissions.
8.Buy an Automated Pass for Toll Roads
●Automated passes permit drivers to use
special lanes to maintain cruising speed
through the toll and avoid stopping and
starting.
9.Winter Warm Up
●Limit idling time to minimize impact to fuel
economy.
●Vehicles typically need no more than
30 seconds of idling at start-up to effec-
tively circulate the engine oil before driv-
ing.
●Your vehicle will reach its ideal operating
temperature more quickly while driving
versus idling.
