- Give your car a service: Tasks like an oil and filter change, new spark plugs, a fresh pollen filter, and brake fluid replacement prolong its life and promote cleaner running.
- Don’t use the air conditioning unless you have to: Using a car’s air conditioning can increase fuel consumption as it can put strain on the engine.
- Make sure all of your tyres are pumped up to the correct PSI reading: Driving a car with under-inflated tyres uses more fuel as the engine is having to work harder to get the car up to speed.
- Don’t drive with the windows open: Driving with a car’s windows open can impact fuel economy as it creates more drag, meaning the engine has to work harder to get up to speed.
- Don’t carry unnecessary weight in the car: Is there anything in your car that you don’t need to carry? If there is, remove it as the heavier your car, the more fuel it will consume.
