Top 5 Tips to Save Fuel

As Saving Fuel means Savings for the whole family, here are some Fuel Saving Tips for all motorists out there:

1.  Drive Smoothly:

Aggressive Driving can use as much as a third more fuel than safe driving. Avoid Accelerating and Braking too hard, to keep your steering as smooth as possible.

2. Use Higher Gears:

The higher gear you drive in, the lower your engine speed is, which can improve fuel efficiency. So change up a gear whenever you can, without labouring the engine.

3. Avoid Over Revving:

Change gear in good time when you pull away or when you are accelerating. Never “redline” the rev counter.

4. Avoid High Speeds:

The faster you go, the more wind resistance you encounter. and the more fuel your vehicle will use to maintain speed. Driving just a few kilometres per hour under the 90km/h speed limit can lower fuel economy compared to driving 20km/h over the speed limit.

5. Avoid Excess Idling:

Idling gets you no where and burns fuel. As a rule, if you have stopped for over 10 seconds, switch off your engine.
