Smaller engines and hybrid engines generally get better fuel economy than larger engines and traditional gas-powered engines.
Vehicle weight
Lighter vehicles generally get better fuel economy than heavier vehicles.
Aerodynamics
Vehicles with more aerodynamic designs generally get better fuel economy than vehicles with less aerodynamic designs.
Driving habits
Aggressive driving habits, such as speeding and hard braking, can reduce fuel economy.
Tips for improving fuel economy
Drive smoothly
Avoid sudden acceleration and braking.
Maintain a steady speed
Use cruise control on highways to maintain a steady speed.
Keep your tires properly inflated
Properly inflated tires improve fuel economy and performance.
Get regular oil changes
Regular oil changes help to keep your engine running efficiently.
Remove excess weight from your vehicle
Unnecessary weight can reduce fuel economy.
Use public transportation or carpool whenever possible
