Automatic Driver’s Fuel-Efficiency Handbook
Do you drive an automatic Suzuki and wish you could get better kilometres on your fuel? You’re not alone! Many automatic car owners feel like they’re at the mercy of their vehicle’s fuel efficiency. But the good news is a few simple and efficient driving techniques can stretch your tank further.
CMH Suzuki Hillcrest provides tips for saving fuel on automatic transmissions.
Keep reading the blog as we uncover(in detail) the 4 essential fuel-saving tips for drivers of automatic cars.
Tyre Pressure
Underinflated tyres cause your car to drag, increase stopping distances, and are generally unsafe. In each tyre, a portion as large as the palm of your hand touches the road surface. This affects the way you drive and your fuel economy.
Aggressive driving
You can save petrol by accelerating gently and pulling away slowly rather than driving aggressively (racing and crazy acceleration).
Keep Momentum
Drive slowly and consistently, and don’t brake unless you need to. When driving on a flat surface such as a highway, you can save fuel by using your cruise control. A body in motion stays in motion, and therefore uses less energy and fuel.
Maintenance
Your vehicle will perform best when it is in good mechanical condition. Regular maintenance will extend the life of your vehicle and save you money on fuel and repair expenses.
Wrappin Up
In conclusion, by incorporating these fuel-saving techniques into your driving routine, you can maximise the efficiency of your automatic Suzuki and squeeze more kilometres out of every tank. Remember, a smooth and steady driving style and proper car maintenance will save you money at the pump and significantly contribute to a safer and more enjoyable driving experience. So put these tips into practice and watch those gas mileage numbers climb.
