Increase your vehicles mileage by following these simple tricks.

Hey Guyzzzz and Girls!!

Whats up??

This is your friend Avijit Chatterjee..

Welcome to "The Vehicle Genre"

In the introductory blog I said, "Do get ready for the next post that will help you save money while driving Cars and riding Bikes, and why just money?? The BLOG will also state how to take care of mother EARTH in-spite of exploiting the natural resources." &

here I'm with the 1st utility blog.

We all know very well that if we drive a car or ride a bike, we subject ourselves as a money bank, created to invest money with no hope to get a return in the same form. The major costs being - fueling the vehicle up to drive or ride it, then comes maintenance and then comes the insurance, PUC, etc.paper kinds of stuff.

Here I can't help you with the paper kind of staffs because that part is governed by the government, but yes I can help you with the other two staffs i.e., fueling and maintenance.

Broadly classifying vehicles (for private use):

1. Cars

2. Bikes

These days both the vehicles are coming in both variants - 

- Vehicles with manual transmission, and,

- Vehicles with automatic transmission.

Fuel Saving Tips For Vehicles With Manual Transmission:

• Try to maintain constant speeds ranging between 70kmph to 100 kmph on highways (*obviously if road and traffic permits you else 40-45 kmph works the best.) In addition I would also say that use the maximum possible gear for any speed, e.g.- If your vehicles speed is 30 kmph try using the 3rd or 4th gear, if your vehicle supports that.
• When struck in city traffic try to stay cool by rolling the windows down, switching off the A.C. and turning off the car.
• It does not at all matter if your ac is running during high speed drive as no vehicle will give good mileage if windows are opened during high speed rides.
• Check the tyres' pressure at regular intervals and keep the tyres' filled as per the recommendation of the car/bike manufacturer.
• Remember you love your vehicle, so, don't be harsh on the ACCELERATOR PEDAL/TWISTER or the BRAKE PEDAL (*the more you press the Accelerator, the more is the amount of fuel burnt, and if you are harsh on the accelerator then you will definitely feel the need of braking the vehicle, thereby preventing the engine from giving the output that you actually paid for by becoming harsh on the accelerator.)
• Use the clutch pedal/lever only when it is necessary.

Bikers: Follow the 1st, 4th, 5th & 6th bullets. And in bikes please try to maintain speeds between 40-45 kmph.

Fuel Saving Tips For Vehicles With Automatic Transmission:

Follow the first five bullet under the heading "Fuel Saving Tips For Vehicles With Manual Transmission:"

Bikers: These days automatic transmissions are highly in use in scooters made by the companies like- Honda, Yamaha, Hero, Mahindra etc.. These scooters starts only when one engaging the brakes press the start button, that is fine but the thing that creates problem is that riders ride their scooters engaging 30% brakes and accelerating hard, which consumes a lot of fuel,
so, valuable tips:

• Do not press the brake lever even 1% when the vehicle is under acceleration, press the brakes only when you feel the necessity.
• Do not accelerate your vehicle hard, be gentle when it comes to acceleration.
• Maintain a speed of 40-45 kmph as that will fetch you the maximum mileage.

Now if you are getting an increased average, you are definitely saving some amount of your hard-earned  money. It very clearly brings out that if you follow the aforesaid bullet points then you are surely taking care of your vehicle as well as you are very gentle with it. This gentle nature will save a good amount of money because the maintenance of the vehicle will go low.

The consumption of fuel being less again helping Mother Earth to stay fit for some additional period of time and also some fuel will be saved for the future generation.

Thank you  all. And do let me know by commenting if the tips helped you to save fuel.

So, people hold your breath tight and wait for the next blog..
