Here at Rallyft.com we’re not all about racing, hard to believe right? But we really do love giving advice to all types of drivers. Petrol is expensive, there’s no denying it and the rapid rise in fuel over the last decade or so means we should be think more economically when we’re driving.
If you are the type of driver who changes gears regularly, perhaps like to pull off quickly and brake excessively, then you’re petrol isn’t going to go as far is it could. To make sure your fuel goes a long way, you should use higher gears more regularly, changing early and anticipating cars braking in front of you so you can roll with the traffic.
If you’re constantly listening to music, charging your phone, using aircon, and the electric windows then you’re going to use more up more power, and consequently more fuel. One place you shouldn’t race around on is on the roads, there really is no need, and if you drive more thoughtfully you’ll save money over time.
