How to Save Gasoline for Cars?
2 Answers
Warm up the car for 1 to 3 minutes before going out in winter, and start driving after the water temperature reaches 40℃. Start in low gear, gently press the accelerator pedal, and accelerate slowly. The economical speed for most cars is between 60 and 80 km/h. Driving at the economical speed saves the most gasoline. Lightly lifting the accelerator can save gasoline. If the accelerator is lifted abruptly, the engine speed will suddenly decrease and act as a drag.
I've found that fuel efficiency mainly comes down to driving habits. Avoid sudden braking or aggressive acceleration, as that makes fuel consumption skyrocket like turning on a faucet at full blast. I maintain a steady speed whenever possible, using cruise control on highways to keep it between 60-80 km/h, which saves quite a bit of fuel. After starting the engine, don't idle for too long - half a minute is enough, then drive gently. When approaching red lights, ease off the throttle early to reduce braking frequency. Use air conditioning sparingly, especially in traffic jams - opening windows for ventilation is more economical. Don't overload your trunk either, as reducing weight helps lower fuel consumption. Remember to check tire pressure during every maintenance - if it's too low, the increased rolling resistance wastes fuel. Saving fuel means saving money - I save several hundred yuan every month. Driving is an art, and mastering these small techniques naturally reduces fuel expenses.
