Why is my Prius using more gas than usual?

I recently noticed that my Toyota Prius is using more gas than usual. I've always been able to get great gas mileage with it, so I'm wondering why it's suddenly changed. Any ideas on what could be causing this?

It could be due to a change in your driving habits. Are you driving faster or accelerating more aggressively than before? This can use up more gas.

B

Have you checked your tire pressure recently? Low tire pressure can lead to decreased gas mileage. I would recommend getting your tires checked and filled to the correct pressure.

Another possibility is that your car needs a tune-up. If you haven't had one in a while, it could be causing your Prius to use more gas. I suggest scheduling a tune-up with a certified mechanic.
