Small tips, big effects, teach you to reduce car fuel consumption in multiple dimensions!

When choosing a car, one point that cannot be ignored is fuel consumption. Considering the cost of using a car, we often choose some economical and applicable models. However, besides the fuel consumption brought by the car itself, we can also reduce the fuel consumption of the car through other factors. Today, let's talk in detail about how to reduce the fuel consumption of cars in multiple dimensions and save money for your wallet.


1.Car Weight

The car weight is divided into the total weight and load weight. The total weight of the car is something we cannot change, while the load weight is something we can control. If you want to reduce fuel consumption, you can try to reduce the car's load weight on a daily basis, but the load weight is not a core factor for passenger cars.

2.Driving Habits

In summary, the key to fuel-efficient driving lies in smooth and unhindered operation. Start gently, accelerate and decelerate gradually, and maintain steady speed, making reasonable use of inertia. Predict traffic conditions in advance to avoid sudden braking and stopping. In addition, controlling the speed, regular maintenance, reducing the weight of the vehicle and other small details can also help to save fuel. Good driving habits not only save fuel, but also extend the life of the vehicle.



3.Vehicle Upkeep

Maintaining the best fuel economy of a vehicle requires regular checking and adjusting of tire pressure. Low tire pressure significantly increases the friction between the tire and the ground, i.e. rolling resistance, which is like adding a pair of "shackles" to the car, leading to an increase in fuel consumption. In addition, low tire pressure can also accelerate tire wear and increase the risk of tire blowout.

Regularly changing engine oil and filters is an important part of keeping the engine healthy. The engine oil is the "blood" of the engine, responsible for lubricating and cooling engine parts. Over time, the engine oil will get dirty, lose its lubrication performance, and increase internal friction in the engine, leading to an increase in fuel consumption. Filters, on the other hand, are responsible for filtering impurities in the air and fuel. If a filter is blocked, it will affect the air intake and fuel supply efficiency of the engine, which will also increase fuel consumption.
