9 Ways to Improve Gas Mileage

Practical tips from the US Department of Energy to maximize your fuel efficiency and save money at the pump.

1
Drive a Fuel-Efficient Vehicle
4-wheel drive uses more fuel than FWD/RWD. Check fueleconomy.gov for the latest fuel efficiency rankings before buying a car.
2
Maintain Correct Tire Pressure
Under-inflated tires reduce gas mileage by 0.3% per PSI drop. Check pressure monthly and inflate to the manufacturer's recommendation.
3
Drive at 55 mph for Optimal Efficiency
Vehicles are 3% less efficient at 60 mph, 8% at 65 mph, 17% at 70 mph, 23% at 75 mph, and 28% at 80 mph compared to 55 mph.
4
Avoid Aggressive Driving
Smooth acceleration and gentle braking can improve fuel efficiency by 15–30% on highways and 10–40% in stop-and-go traffic.
5
Keep Your Vehicle Well-Maintained
Using the correct motor oil improves mpg by 1–2%. A faulty oxygen sensor can reduce mileage by up to 40%. Change air filters regularly.
6
Remove Unnecessary Weight
Every 100 lbs of extra weight reduces MPG by about 1%. Remove unused cargo, roof racks, and bike racks when not needed.
7
Roll Up Windows on the Highway
Open windows create drag at high speeds. On the highway, AC is actually more efficient than open windows due to reduced aerodynamic drag.
8
Use Air Conditioning Wisely
AC can reduce fuel economy by up to 25% in hot weather. Don't run AC at full blast when idling. It is more efficient when the car is moving.
9
Avoid Unnecessary Idling
An idling vehicle gets 0 mpg. Turn off your engine if you're stopped for more than 60 seconds. Idling burns 0.2–0.5 gallons of fuel per hour.
