Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) About Fuel Efficiency
What is the best way to improve my car's gas mileage in Winston-Salem?
The most effective way to protect your miles per gallon is to focus on smooth driving habits. In Winston-Salem's hilly terrain, aggressive acceleration and hard braking can reduce your gas mileage by up to 40% in city traffic. Maintaining a steady throttle and allowing your vehicle to coast toward red lights are simple ways to keep your fuel efficiency high.
Do roof racks and cargo carriers really lower fuel economy?
Yes, external accessories create significant wind resistance. A large roof-top cargo box can reduce your highway fuel economy by as much as 20%. To ensure your vehicle reaches its peak highway MPG, we recommend removing roof racks, bike carriers, or cargo baskets when they aren't actively being used for trips outside of the Triad.
Why is my fuel efficiency lower on short trips across town?
Engines are least efficient when they are cold. On short trips across Winston-Salem, your engine may never reach its optimal operating temperature, leading to higher fuel consumption. To maximize your average MPG, try to combine multiple errands into one longer trip so the engine remains warm and operates at peak efficiency.
Can a bad wheel alignment cause my vehicle to use more gas?
Absolutely. If your wheels are misaligned, they essentially "drag" against the road rather than rolling freely. This added resistance forces the engine to work harder and can decrease your fuel economy by as much as 10%. Regular alignment checks at our Winston-Salem service center are a great way to ensure you aren't wasting money on fuel.
