How to drive economically

The individual driving technique of the driver has a decisive influence on the level of fuel consumption.

Under-inflated tires on wheels, a roof rack, and minor problems such as the power system are factors that affect how much fuel the engine burns in our car. However, the most important thing is how we drive. The car may be in good condition, the tires are under ideal pressure, and the body is devoid of any elements that resist air, but if the driving style is not correct, fuel consumption will significantly exceed the permissible level.

What is economical driving? The shortest liquidity period. It starts the moment you hit the road. By carefully releasing the clutch, adding gas and shifting gears, you will ensure optimal wear. It is enough to accelerate faster and the momentary need will jump even to several tens (!) Liters per 100 kilometers.

Smooth driving also means braking (slowing down) using the engine. When braking, do not disengage the gear, but take your foot off the gas pedal. Only when the car has almost stopped do we release the gear. On the other hand, re-acceleration does not always require shifting into first gear.

Drive on a straight road in the highest possible gear. Even when driving at a speed of 90 km / h. we can safely include five.
