Fuel Saving Guide
- Drive at steady speeds — sudden acceleration and braking increase fuel by 20-30%.
- Check tire pressure regularly — low pressure increases consumption by 3-5%.
- Avoid carrying unnecessary weight — every 50 kg extra increases consumption by 1-2%.
- Use air conditioning only when needed — AC increases consumption by 5-15%.
- Choose walking or cycling for short distances.
- Avoid peak traffic hours.
Info
Fill the tank completely, reset the trip meter, drive normally, then fill again. Liters used / km driven x 100 = your L/100km consumption. Average over several fill-ups for more accurate results.
Diesel cars generally consume 20-30% less fuel, but diesel prices are close to gasoline. If you drive 20,000+ km annually, diesel may be economical. LPG is most economical for city driving due to its much lower per-liter price.
Looking at fuel cost alone, driving is typically 3-5x more expensive than public transit. When insurance, maintenance, parking, and depreciation are added, the gap widens further.
