2. Turn on the air conditioner as little as possible
On hot days, cars generally consume less gasoline because it doesn’t take them as long to fully warm up. Still, the gains made on this can quickly evaporate the moment you turn on the air conditioning. Better to choose to open the car windows a little more often and save the air conditioning only for highway driving.
1. Leaving the heating off
The same applies to heating in the car as to air conditioning: it makes for a pleasant environment, but it also costs a lot of gasoline. Try to turn on the heater in your car as little as possible. Is it really necessary? Then turn it on only when you are already driving. That saves a lot of heating time and gasoline.
