Transportation Tips - Efficiency
  • Lose the Weight
  • Don’t carry heavy loads in the car when unnecessary. The weight of a car affects your fuel consumption.
  • Roll Down Your Windows
  • Operating a car’s A/C in hot weather can increase fuel consumption by more than 20% in urban city driving. Roll down that window and minimize your use of the A/C.
  • Get In Gear
  • By using the proper gears for the speed you are travelling, you will increase efficiency by 25%.
