Car Care Tips: Not only may you save money by using less fuel, but you also help to lessen pollution. The last few years have seen a rise in fuel prices, which has affected both the final consumer and the auto industry overall. In this article, we will tell you 5 ways you can reduce your fuel bills every month.
5 Ways you can reduce your fuel bills every month
1. Always keep optimum tyre pressure
On the road, under-inflated tyres have more rolling resistance. Accordingly, your tyres will use more fuel for each km of travel since they will create greater rolling resistance and friction. Up to 10% less fuel efficiency may result from all of your tyres being underinflated by 10 psi.
2. Keep your windows up
You use a lot more fuel and create a lot more wind resistance when you drive with the windows down at speeds greater than 80 km/h. In this scenario, contrary to popular belief, driving with the air conditioning on simply uses less fuel than having your windows rolled down.
3. Avoid braking unnecessarily
When you have to accelerate again later, slamming on the brakes uses more petrol. In particular, this applies if you follow the car in front of you too closely. Furthermore, it’s best to avoid tailgating because it’s risky.
4. Turn off the engine when needed
Turn off your engine if you are going to be waiting for someone or something longer than three minutes. Even while you’re not moving, your engine is still using valuable fuel.
5. Remove unnecessary baggage from the car
Consider again before packing the next time, if you’re one of those people who always keeps everything, including emergency supplies, in the boot. Petrol usage rises by 2% for every 50 kg that your car adds.
