Top Tips On Saving Fuel
Top Tips On Saving Fuel
- Plan Your Stops. We all know that making a lot of stops costs more fuel so plan your stops accordingly. RACV has a dedicated page that will help you choose service stations that offer the best fuel prices.
- Check Your Tyres. Your car will expend a lot of fuel if the tyres are under-inflated. It is also the common cause of tyre blowouts, especially on a long drive. So make sure your tyres have the perfect pressure before heading off.
- Don't Overload Your Vehicle. Only bring the necessary. A heavy car needs more fuel to move. If you can lie down on the beach, you don't need to bring that extendable beach chair.
- Decrease Drag. If you are driving at more than 80km/h closing your windows and sunroof and even opening your AC will burn less fuel and increase your car's aerodynamics.
- Tap Into Technology. If you have GPS, use it, you don't want to spend fuel going around because you're lost. And download motoring related Apps that are handy or related to your journey.
