How to improve Fuel Economy?

Ways to reduce your day-to-day fuel consumption

Use our ELF Fuel Economy (FE) lubricants.
Check your tyre pressure on a regular basis (once a month).
Opt for a smoother driving style, avoiding rapid acceleration and braking whenever possible.
Avoid using air-conditioning whenever possible.
Car share in order to minimize your impact on the environment and reduce traffic congestion.
Change into a higher gear as soon as it is safe to do so.
Use cruise control on motorways in order to reduce the impact of accelerating and braking on your fuel consumption.

Limit your speed: you get better fuel economy when you cruise at lower speeds. Peak fuel economy typically occurs at 30-35 mph. Fuel economy at 70 mph is typically about 20% higher than at 80 mph. We thus recommend you to upshift as soon as possible and always use the highest gear that will do the job, whether cruising at a steady speed or passing.
Minimize brakes: a high rate of acceleration is not a problem as long as you upshift early. What really hurts fuel economy is the use of your brakes. Brakes destroy forward momentum by turning it into heat; restoring that lost momentum requires more fuel to be burned. Get off the throttle early when approaching a crossroads at which you must stop to minimize the use of your brakes.
Minimize frontal area: install windscreens, luggage, and auxiliary lights in a manner that minimizes the effect on frontal area.
Minimize weight
Maintain proper tire pressures: always keep your tires properly inflated.
