How to drive the most fuel-efficient
I. New Car Running-in
The new car must work in the first 3000 km mileage. The speed of new cars should be controlled at least 80 kilometers per hour; the speed should be minimized for rapid acceleration and deceleration.
Ii. reasonable maintenance of vehicles-Regular Maintenance
You need to know that cars in good condition can save 15% to 20% fuel.
1. air filter, gasoline filter, and oil filter: Each 5000 km traveling accessory needs to be replaced, because air filter blocking will reduce the gas volume, resulting in inadequate gasoline combustion and reduced fuel efficiency, the blockage of the gasoline filter can also cause abnormal engine operation.
2. Oil: add the appropriate amount of oil. Pay attention to the scale marked by the oil gauge. If the engine oil is too large, the crankshaft will be drowned and the resistance will be increased. If the engine oil is too small, it cannot be lubricated or closed, or even affect the engine efficiency.
3. Tire status: Low tire pressure may increase fuel consumption. According to a US Department of Energy Survey, if the tire pressure of each vehicle is 1 pound/square inch less than the standard air pressure, the United States will consume more than 15 million liters of gasoline each day; check the wear of tires regularly. If you find that the tires are grayed out or the steering wheel is abnormal, you need to consult a professional repair shop for repair as soon as possible.
4. Avoid over-decoration, such as spoiler and rain shield, which will damage the design of the original car and increase fuel consumption. Do not put a lot of things that are not commonly used in the trunk. Increasing unnecessary loads will also increase fuel consumption, statistics show that each increase of 1 kg of the load will increase fuel consumption by 1%. To save fuel, some drivers adopt the method of closing the air conditioner at high speed and opening the windows for ventilation. This is not advisable, when the vehicle speed is higher than 85 kilometers per hour, the wind resistance after opening the window consumes more fuel than the air conditioning system, it will reduce your fuel economy index by 10%.
3. Develop good driving habits
1. select proper driving status based on different road conditions: reduce emergency acceleration and deceleration and emergency turns. When driving, we should not only look at the previous car, but also see the situation of the first two or three cars at the same time, so as to take measures in advance to reduce the sudden brakes; Do not refresh, increase and decrease the speed at a time, fuel consumption may differ by 12 mL. The engine speed ranges from 2000 to 3000 rpm, and the vehicle speed ranges from 60 to 90 km per hour.
2. Shift time: select the best time to shift (the engine speed is between 2000 and 3000 rpm); Eliminate low-speed transmission. Low-speed transmission often causes fuel consumption to exceed 45% of the normal value; users of manually arranged vehicles should avoid starting high blocks.
3. reduce idle speed: it is a good habit to moderate hot cars. It is recommended that you make the vehicles run slowly for a short distance. The original hot cars will increase fuel consumption for a long time; air conditioners run at idle speeds for a long period of time, especially fuel consumption.
Experiences on how manual transmission cars run with fuel saving
When you start a manual shift in the city, many riders may feel like they are not idle at the root of their right hand. They often start, shift, speed up, and slow down. If it is a good driver, it doesn't matter. However, most drivers still cannot cope with it, resulting in high fuel consumption. This should also be done by experts, "The level of fuel consumption depends on driving technology ".
We know that the accelerator and the brakes are two major factors to control the speed. If you have a good grasp of these two factors, saving oil, but also reducing the loss of vehicle parts, extend the service life of the car. However, how to understand the speed control of the accelerator and the brakes, and how to operate it to save fuel, the drivers of the driving school have come up with a lot of driving skills. You can give it a try.
Road Condition 1: You need to stop at the front of 100 meters. The current block is 3 blocks.
Fuel-saving tips: Quickly increase 4 blocks, and then slide with blocks
When you are driving a car, you must first determine the current road conditions and the road conditions that determine the driving method: the vision ahead, other motor vehicles on the road, non-motor vehicles, pedestrians, and road conditions, the driving method varies depending on the road conditions.
If the parking space is 100 meters in front, the current block is 3 blocks and the speed is 40 km/hour. In this way, the parking space is 100 meters, or should I mention 50 km/hour or even 60 km/hour in the shortest time, and then raise the gear by four times?
The answer is the latter. However, it should be noted that do not refuel after upgrading 4 blocks, but slide at 4 blocks with blocks until the end of 100 meters. So, to some extent, not all of them must be oily when they step on the gas pedal. Of course, it was time-consuming to step on the accelerator, but it was time to drive economically (not to step on the accelerator, the subsequent economic driving speed won back the oil wasted due to instant fuel increase. The whole driving process is still fuel-saving.
Road Condition 2: when the distance between you and the front car is not enough to reach 3 blocks
Fuel-saving tips: change to empty-shift cars after 2-shift fuel
What should you do when the distance between you and the front car and the speed of the car cannot be increased to 3, but the distance between you and the front car is too low?
"At this time, you can put it in two blocks, and then step on the throttling. At this time, do not enter three blocks, but cut into the neutral block and use the inertia to slide the car ." Mr. Xu, a driver with more than 20 years of driving experience, summed up his experience. "In this way, it is both fuel-saving and does not have to brake because the speed is too fast after the three blocks are upgraded. It also saves the trouble of switching from the three blocks to the neutral gear when approaching the front car next time ."
Road Condition 3: When a red light needs to start several times
Fuel-saving tips: after 1-Stop fuel is used, the vehicle will be mounted to an empty-block Vehicle
During the peak hours of work, when crossing the busy road section, we often encounter several red lights, which means that we need to start several times. In this case, how can we drive to save fuel?
Based on experience, Mr. Zhao said: "In this short distance, you can choose not to attach two blocks after the first stop starts, but to replace it with an empty block after the first stop gets a little deeper; when you move your foot onto the brakes, You can brake at any time based on the distance of the front car, or let the car move to the stop according to inertia."
However, it should be noted that the selection of "Empty-block sliding" or "with-block sliding" cannot be generalized. Of course, the 3 and 4 blocks can be smooth, but the 1 and 2 blocks are difficult to smooth in actual operations and can only be dry.
Road Condition 4: congested road surface, stop and stop
Fuel-saving tips: Click the accelerator and release it, and then step on it.
Often near the crossroads or peak hours, there is a stop and stop, this time you need to be cleverly correct.
The brakes are crucial to speed control. The brakes can speed down the car, but there is no more than one way to speed down the brakes, the accelerator is also a way to control the speed. Loose or do not step on the accelerator is sometimes a better way to speed down than the brakes.
"One principle of driving is that you don't need to brake to speed down with the loose door ." Liu Shifu, the taxi driver, said that the road ahead should be preplanned to slide in advance with a loose door. If you have to stop the brakes, Master Liu suggested: You 'd better step on the brakes first and then release the brakes. Although the brakes will make people in the car feel a little bit, but it is good for the vehicle, it avoids the problem of brake pad wear and overheating due to the constant brake, the braking effect after overheating is reduced.
