What is ‘‘Eco-Driving’’?’
•Eco-Driving = Driving in a more careful and environmentally responsible way
•Eco-Driving = Reduced fuel costs
•Eco-Driving = Reduced Environmental impact áSaving of CO2emissions.
Total potential saving of 20 - 30%.
Eco-Driving Savings
Roof load increases wind drag and
therefore consumption.
Open windows increase fuel
consumption by an average of 5%.
Air Conditioning
can result in 10 - 25%
extra fuel consumption.
Low Tyre ressure result in higher fuel consumption
(up to 3% extra from 0.5 bar too low)
Tyre pressures can fall by 2.5 - 5.0% after one month,
and by 20% after 5 months.
Starting
•Remove any extra weight and roof load
•Plan your route to avoid detours
•Avoid using your car for short journeys
Checking/maintenance
•Check your tyre pressures regularly
•Service your car according to owner’s manual
Driving
•Only use electrical accessories when necessary (e.g. A/C)
•Follow and anticipate the traffic flow
•Keep your windows closed (use ventilation system when possible)
•Switch off your engine if you have to wait longer than 30 - 60 seconds
How to Eco-Drive?
Roof Load
(Speed at 120 km/hr)
Increased
consumption
Luggage rack 5 – 10%
Ski box 10 – 20%
Bicycle rack 30%
Loaded luggage rack 35 – 40%
