The estimates reflect the performance of a car Dollars Per Gallon that has been broken in, is properly maintained, and is being Est. -- - driven in warm weather on dry and level roads. Because stan- MPG 1.75 1.66 1.56 1.45 1.36 1.25 1.15 dardized tests cannot simulate individual drivers, the mileage - actually experienced will vary from the EPA figures. Therefore, these estimates do not predict actual mileage, but should be used to compare the relative fuel economy performance of dii- ferent new models driven under the same test conditions. Choose Your New Car Carefully The greatest single step in saving gasdine is to choose your next car carefully. First, determine the size and type car that can best satisfy your normal driving needs. Next, consider other important factors, such as number of cylinders and type of transmission. Then use the estimated mpg and the average annual fuel cost chart to help you decide which model in that size class to buy. Use Driving Skills That Save Fuel Drive at a moderate speed. Smooth, steady driving improves fuel economy performance. Try to avoid sudden stops and starts. Anticipate intersections and stoplights so you can stow down gradually and try to arrive when the light is green. Avoid tail- gating and unnecessary accelerating and braking. Minimize idling; after starting a cdd car, drive slowly for the fim few minutes to warm the motor and moving parts. This is more fuel- efficient than prolonged warm-up idling. On the highway, you will cover more miles between fill-ups by driving at or below the 56 mile-per-hour speed limit. A vehicle traveling 70 mph uses as much as 20 percent more fuel than at 55 mph. Keep Your Vehicle in Prime Condition For best fuel economy, maintain your vehicle according to the manufacturer's specifications. Tuned-up vehicles average approwi- mately 4-8 percent better gas mileage than those not properly tuned. Keep the tires inflated to the proper pressure. Each pound of underinflation can cause a fuel loss of 'h percent. Annual Fuel Costs Fuel costs are changing rapidly and vary considerably by area. The following table enables you to calculate annual fuel cost using fuel prices in your area. These costs are based on 15,000 miles of driving. (The annual fuel cost displayed on the fuel economy label of 1981 cars is based on 15,000 miles of driving and a gasoline cost of $1.55 per gallon or diesel fuel at $1.45 cents per gallon. How This Guide Can Hdp You METRIC CONVERSION CHARTS To help compare the fuel economy of similarly sized MIL MPG Gallons Liters Liters Gallons passenger cars and station wagons, these vehicles are grouped in classes according to interior size.

  • Fuel Efficient Road Transport System : a Review
    International Journal of Engineering Research & Technology (IJERT) ISSN: 2278-0181 Vol. 3 Issue 11, November-2014 Fuel Efficient Road Transport System : A Review Telem Bishworjit Singh Dr. Th. Kiranbala Devi M.Tech. Student,Civil Engg. Dept. Faculty, Department of Civil Engineering NIT Silchar, Assam, India Manipur Institute of Technology Manipur, India Abstract - For developing a better economy there is a need of developing an energy-efficient and environment friendly road transport system. India is one of the fastest growing and largest emerging market economies. The Indian economy is one of the fastest growing economies and is the 12th largest in terms of the market exchange rate at $1,430.02 billion (2010 India GDP). In terms of purchasing power parity, the Indian economy ranks the fourth largest in the world. By 2020, India is expected to be in the top 10 largest economies of the world. Rapid economic growth is usually connected to a rapid expansion and highly profitable road transportation. Transportation is a major consumer of petroleum fuels whose prices are set to rise due to the decreasing reserves. There is a need of a more efficient transportation system. Key Words: Transportation, petroleum fuels, consumer, transport system, economies INTRODUCTION India is one of the fastest growing and largest emerging market economies (Wilson and Purushothaman, 2003;IJERTIJERT Economy Watch, 2010). According to W.H.O. the population of India is almost 1,245,910,000 (June 27, 2014) i.e. 17.4% billion people of the total population of the world. To support the population, huge amount of petroleum energy is being consumed in highway transportation sector which in turn cost a huge amount of Indian rupees.
