The cheapest litre is the one you don't burn

  • Maintain correct tyre pressure, under-inflated tyres can cost you 5% mileage
  • Use engine braking instead of riding the brake
  • Avoid idling for more than 30 seconds, turn the engine off
  • Drive at 60 to 80 km/h on the highway, the sweet spot for most sedans
  • Clean / replace the air filter every service
  • Use the recommended engine oil grade (thicker isn't always better)

CNG vs Petrol

Where CNG is available, the per-km cost is still roughly half, but availability and queue times often outweigh the savings.

Plan trips together

Combine errands into one outing. A cold engine burns 20% more for the first 5km.
