No. Slower driving generally results in better gas mileage.

The higher the speed the more fuel you will use.


Does a car use more fuel when accelerating fast then when accelerating slow?

yes, you are causing it to run richer.


How do you calculate 1050 miles in gas price for a trip?

You need to know the fuel efficiency of the vehicle when you are driving (driving styles do make a difference).Use the fuel efficiency to calculate the amount of gas you will need and then use the gas price to calculate the cost of fuel.You need to know the fuel efficiency of the vehicle when you are driving (driving styles do make a difference).Use the fuel efficiency to calculate the amount of gas you will need and then use the gas price to calculate the cost of fuel.You need to know the fuel efficiency of the vehicle when you are driving (driving styles do make a difference).Use the fuel efficiency to calculate the amount of gas you will need and then use the gas price to calculate the cost of fuel.You need to know the fuel efficiency of the vehicle when you are driving (driving styles do make a difference).Use the fuel efficiency to calculate the amount of gas you will need and then use the gas price to calculate the cost of fuel.


Why is your Jeep Liberty hard on gas?

Just as some vehicles are fast and some slow there are vehicles that will run on very little fuel and some that use lots and lots of fuel frequently. 4Wheel drive vehicles fall into the use lots of fuel for no other reason than the sort of driving they are designed to do


Does moving from a standstill use more fuel than using vehicle momentum in slow moving traffic?

Yes, accelerating from a standstill typically uses more fuel than maintaining vehicle momentum in slow-moving traffic because the engine has to work harder to overcome inertia. In slow-moving traffic, keeping a steady speed and avoiding unnecessary acceleration and braking can help conserve fuel.


When driving a car do you use the same amount of petrol as you would if you are driving fast to slow to the same distance?

even though you are driving to the same place, if you are going fast and you are on a high gear e.g. gear 5, as to going slow on gear 3 you are using more car energy so you are using more petrol going fast.by Georgia davies


Driving Tips to Conserve Fuel?

There are a few simple ways to conserve fuel consumption. Keeping tires inflated properly will reduce the amount of friction while traveling and in turn reduce the amount of fuel needed to power the engine. When the light turns green, slow acceleration will keep the RPM's down which saves fuel. Pickup trucks have been shown to save fuel by lowering the tailgate when not in use which will reduce the drag and promote a more aerodynamic design.


How much petrol will you use if driving 107 miles?

It depends upon the fuel economy of the vehicle you are driving.


Does driving 50 burn more gas than driving 60 miles an hour over the same distance?

No. Probably.There are speeds for each vehicle, depending on which gear is in use, which will consume more fuel at a slightly faster speed.


Does tires use more fuel?

Tires do not use fuel.


Does air-con in a car really use your fuel?

If you mean does the A/C cause the engine to use more fuel, the answer is yes and no. In city driving the A/C does indeed cause the engine to use more fuel. On the highway at speed, the engine uses about the same amount of fuel with the A/C on as with the A/C off and windows down. It also depends on the model year of the car. Older cars have A/C compressors that require more power to drive.


How do you get better gas millage?

* For starters, as difficult as it may be, slow down!!! Driving 55 as opposed to 65 can increase your gas mileage up to 17%! * Use higher octane fuel * When pumping your gas, do it on the lowest (slowest) level. This allows less air inside the fuel while pumping and will give you more actual gas. * You can also add an air intake system as well.
