I have recently purchased a Toyota Corolla and I am wondering what I can do to ensure that it stays fuel efficient. My daily commute is quite long and I don't want to end up spending a fortune on gas. What steps should I take to maintain the fuel efficiency of my car?
ReplyFirst and foremost, make sure to regularly check your tire pressure. Underinflated tires can greatly reduce your car's fuel efficiency. Secondly, avoid any aggressive driving habits such as speeding and rapid acceleration. This can use up a lot of gas. Also, keep up with regular maintenance check-ups and oil changes.
I would also recommend reducing the weight in your car. If you have any unnecessary items stored in your trunk, remove them as they can add extra weight and use up more gas. Additionally, try to plan your routes to avoid heavy traffic to avoid constant idling and wasting gas.
