Easy ways to spend less on gas

You do not need extreme hypermiling tricks to reduce fuel spending. Consistency matters more.

Keep tires at the recommended pressure

Use the pressure listed on the vehicle placard, not the maximum pressure printed on the tire sidewall.

Plan trips efficiently

Combining errands can reduce cold starts and unnecessary miles.

Drive smoothly

Avoiding unnecessary hard acceleration and braking can reduce wasted energy and may also reduce wear.

Remove unnecessary weight

Heavy cargo and exterior accessories can increase the energy needed to move the vehicle.

Keep up with maintenance

Address check-engine lights and maintenance items that can affect drivability or efficiency.
