Improve Your Vehicle Fuel Efficiency

Fuel prices are often in flux, which is why it can be useful to know the best methods for improving your car’s fuel efficiency. These simple steps can make a big difference.

Lighten the Load

Our Cadillac vehicles are more than capable, but you want to avoid carrying around extra cargo whenever possible. Excess weight puts unnecessary pressure on essential Cadillac parts and systems and requires more fuel to go the same distance. Removing the excess can really help.

Consider Your Driving Environment

The ideal speed for maximum fuel economy is 55-65 miles per hour. It can be useful to consider your driving behavior and conditions, and to adjust to roads with higher speed limits and less braking. This can help to boost your fuel economy with every ride.

Schedule Service

The best way to keep your vehicle operating efficiently is with routine Cadillac service and care. A few simple services, like oil changes, air filter changes, and tire fill-ups, can make a big difference. For instance, when the tires on your vehicle are low, they drag along the surface of the street. Properly inflating your tires can improve your vehicle’s fuel efficiency by more than three percent.
