Optimal performance of the vehicle
Comments on the optimal
performance of the vehicle
The fuel consumption amount
which is is according to the
standard situation of Euro 2
or Euro 4 (depending on the
vehicle model) which is obtained
from driving cycle (in road-city
combination) so in a non-standard
situation fuel consumption will
increase. The amount of fuel
consumption depends on the
driving method, and its time and
place.
Use the following suggestions
to reduce the fuel consumption
of the vehicle and to reach its
economical performance.
- Do not drive with high
acceleration.
- Usage of electrical systems
- Do not warm up the engine for
a long time while the vehicle is
stopped.
- When you start to drive,
accelerate the vehicle slowly.
- Make sure the engine is
always tuned up, and follow
the recommended periodic
maintenance schedule to increase
the life time of the vehicle parts.
- Do not use the air conditioning
system if it is not necessary.
- When driving on the unsmooth
roads reduce your speed.
- To increase the life time of tires
and reducing fuel consumption,
keep them to the standard
pressure.
- Maintain a safe distance from
the front vehicle to prevent from
sudden brakes and the wearing
of brake pads and the tires. This
reduces the fuel consumption
when reaccelerating.
- usage of non-standard rack
and unnecessary loads lead to
increase of fuel consumption.
- Lack of recommended periodic
maintenance schedule (replacing
air filter, spark plug,wires and fuel
filter)
- While driving do not put your
foot on the brake pedal to rest.
This will cause the brake pads to
wear and the fuel consumption to
increase.
- If the front wheels are not in the
correct alignment, the tires will
wear and the power will reduce,
resulting in the fuel consumption
increase.
- Being open of the windows at
high speeds increases the fuel
consumption.
- Opposite wind direction in driving
increases fuel consumption. In
this condition, it is better to drive
at low speed.
Attention
optimal fuel consumption is in
the speed range of 80-90km/h
and less than 3000 rpm of
engine speed.
