Tips On Improving Your Honda Gas Mileage
Many of the vehicles in our new Honda inventory are known for their fuel economy. To get the most out of every litre of fuel, there are some things you can do. Keep reading to learn more about the top tips to improve fuel economy.
- Get Rid of Extra Weight
By making your Honda lighter, you can improve your fuel economy. Even a small amount of weight can make a difference. Of course, leave all the necessary items, like an emergency kit or jumper cables, in case of an emergency. Consider removing extra books, sports equipment, and anything you may have forgotten in the trunk or cargo area to reduce excess weight.
- Perform Regular Maintenance
With old components under your hood, your Honda may work harder than it should. Taking in your vehicle for regular servicing can go a long way in improving efficiency. Periodic maintenance includes changing your oil, changing old filters for new ones, and replacing old spark plugs.
- Slow Down
Going too much over the speed limit on the highway might get you to places more quickly, but it's not great for your efficiency. Consider sticking to the speed limit if you'd like to get the most out of each tank of fuel.
- Operate your Honda Smoothly
Rapid acceleration and hard braking use a lot of fuel. This is a very inefficient way of driving. Instead of making drastic changes to your speed, focus on keeping the acceleration and decelerating nice and smooth.
- Pump Up Your Tires
It's natural for tires to lose pressure over time. That's why you should regularly check your tire pressure. This can increase your fuel efficiency by a small percentage, which can add up. Check the manual or the tire wall for the correct PSI.?
