How can I optimize the fuel efficiency of my Toyota RAV4?

I recently purchased a Toyota RAV4 and I am curious about ways to save on gas. Are there any specific driving techniques or maintenance tips I should be aware of?

Hi Anne, congratulations on your new RAV4! One way to improve fuel efficiency is by avoiding sudden accelerations and heavy braking. This will not only save gas but also reduce wear and tear on your car.

Another tip is to keep your tires properly inflated. Underinflated tires can decrease fuel efficiency by up to 0.2% for every 1 psi drop in pressure. So be sure to check your tire pressure regularly.

In addition, make sure to follow your car's maintenance schedule. A well-maintained engine can improve fuel efficiency by up to 4%, saving you even more gas in the long run.
