At current prices for fuel consumption it has become one of the main technical parameters of the vehicle. Thanks to modern technology cars have become significantly less fuel consumed, however, the consumption figures do not depend only by car, but also on the driver, which in the presence of specific knowledge and skills can significantly reduce the cost of him. For information on how to reduce the guaranteed fuel consumption of the car - read on.

1. In order to machine in the order flow

There is nothing surprising in the fact that it is impossible to achieve optimum performance rate on the defective vehicle. Machine to serve faithfully and did not suffer an increased "appetite", it is necessary to carry out its maintenance regularly. Usually, the gap between the OT for modern vehicles is 15000 km. Novate.ru previously wrote about how to properly follow the car in order to prolong its life.

2. Tire pressure

In the car, everything is interconnected. And a technical parameter as tire pressure can significantly increase fuel consumption. The fact that the wheels with low pressure has a high coefficient of rolling resistance, because of which the engine load is increased, which entails an increased fuel consumption. To avoid this, you must at least once a week to check the tire pressure and keep it within the limits specified by the manufacturer. Typically, a sign with the requirements of the pressure in the tires is placed in the opening of the driver's door.

3. Air conditioning and open windows

It is proved that the air conditioning and open windows significantly increases fuel consumption. So, in order to achieve a minimum flow rate of fuel is necessary to drive with the windows closed and the air conditioning off. However, in the hot summer days are long so not a train. So how can that be? The recommendation is as follows: at speeds up to 80 km / h is better to lift the window, at a higher speed, such as when driving on the highway, it is best to bury the windows and turn on air conditioning. The fact that, at high speeds, the resistance to motion generated by the open windows much more increases fuel consumption than the air conditioner.

4. driving style

Enormous contribution to the efficiency drive makes driving style of the driver. Fans drive who travel to the so-called mode "Ramp" and regularly rubber tourniquet on the traffic lights are the most wasteful drivers. To achieve the lowest fuel consumption, it should be as soon as possible to switch to a higher gear to keep the engine speed in the range 2000 - 2500 rev / min, avoiding busy roads and traffic jams. It should be possible to drive smoothly, reducing the advance speed or an obstacle in front of the bend. In keeping with this drive mode, it is possible to reduce fuel consumption by 15%.

5. Overweight - excess consumption

The larger car weighs, the harder the engine has to it and, consequently, the higher the consumption. In order not to spend too much cost to put the car all the unnecessary things to get out of the luggage compartment, remove additional storage space with the roof, if available - it also has a negative impact on aerodynamics.

6. Engine warming winter

"Warming or not warming" - this issue is being discussed among motorists for many years. Modern engines do not require a long warm even in winter. Warming up for more than five minutes - it's just an extra fuel consumption. Much more efficient "warm" on the go. To do this, just do not give a higher engine speed as long as he has not reached its operating temperature.

Above it says that for optimal fuel consumption of the car need to lay out all the excess. However, in no case should not spread 6 mandatory things in the car, without which any driver as without hands
