• Smooth, moderate operation can yield savings in fuel

• Steady speeds without stopping will usually give the best fuel economy

• Anticipate stopping; slowing down may eliminate the need to stop

• Sudden or hard accelerations reduce fuel economy

• Slow down gradually

• Drive at moderate speeds

• Revving the engine before turning it off may reduce fuel economy

• The air conditioner may reduce fuel economy

• Warming up a vehicle on cold mornings is not required and may reduce fuel

economy

• While idling put the gear shift lever in the neutral position

• Resting your foot on the clutch pedal while driving may reduce fuel economy

• Combine errands and minimize stop-and-go driving

hilly terrains

• Close windows during high speed driving for better fuel economy

• As far as possible refuel at the same conditions preferably in the morning

11.11 How to Calculate Fuel Efficiency (Mileage)

1. Ensure recommended tire pressure is maintained

2. Refuel your vehicle till the auto-cut-off mode

3. Reset trip meter to zero

4. Drive at a moderate speed for a minimum distance of 100 km

5. Refuel at the same fuel station till the auto-cut-off mode

6. Assuming ‘a’ liters of fuel was filled and ‘b’ was the trip meter reading. Fuel

Efficiency = b/a kmpl
