If you want to achieve good mileage from your vehicle, it's important to drive at a certain speed. Everyone's mileage varies because driving styles differ, but we can recommend a speed that will help you get the most out of your car.

For optimal mileage, aim to drive your vehicle at a speed of 50-70 km/h. At this speed, your vehicle's engine operates more efficiently, leading to lower fuel consumption. Additionally, there is less strain on the engine, which means it doesn't have to exert as much power. To further enhance fuel efficiency, avoid sudden braking and rapid acceleration, as these actions can lead to excessive fuel consumption.

Maintaining this speed is easier in rural areas than in urban settings. Try to keep your vehicle at a consistent speed, as this will not only reduce fuel consumption but also extend the life of your vehicle.

Ensure your tires are properly inflated, schedule timely servicing and maintenance, turn off unnecessary devices like the AC, music system, or lights, avoid carrying excess weight, and use high-quality fuel. By following these tips, you can maximize your vehicle's fuel efficiency.
