  3. Reduce pressure in all tyres.
  4. Correct answerAvoid carrying unnecessary weight.

The more extra weight is in your vehicle, the more fuel you use. Using a roof rack or a roof box increases wind resistance and this also increases fuel consumption : by as much as 15%. Remove roof racks and roof boxes when not in use.

驾驶员可以通过哪些方式最大化行驶中的燃油效率?

  1. 提高道路速度。
  2. 安装车顶行李架。
  3. 降低所有轮胎的压力。
  4. 避免携带不必要的重量。

车辆的额外重量越多,油耗就越高。使用车顶行李架或车顶箱会增加风阻,从而使油耗增加多达15%。不使用时,应移除车顶行李架和车顶箱。
