How to Improve Suzuki Fuel Efficiency
Spend less time fueling up and more time chasing adventure on the road with a fuel efficient Suzuki. Your French Guiana dealer has your guide to ensuring your tank goes the extra distance!
1. Maintain Tyre Pressure
Underinflated tyres can make your vehicle work over time, increasing fuel consumption. To ensure your Suzuki maintains efficient fuel use, regularly check your tyre pressure. Recommended tyre pressure can be found in your owner's manual!
2. Accelerate Smoothly
Trying to reach high speeds in as little time as possible can make your Suzuki use more fuel than necessary. Accelerating at a steady speed will help your vehicle use as little fuel as possible.
3. Maintain a Consistent Speed
Using cruise control and maintaining a consistent speed when possible will keep your engine from working more than necessary.
4. Schedule Regular Maintenance
We encourage you to follow the maintenance guidelines in your owner’s manual. Regular oil changes, air filter replacements, and engine tune-ups keep your vehicle running as efficiently as possible.
5. Avoid Unnecessary Weight in Your Vehicle
Although your vehicle may be needed to store cargo, or move things from point A to point B, we encourage you to minimize unnecessary cargo in your vehicle. Excessive weight requires your vehicle to use more fuel.
6. Minimize A/C Use
While enjoying the comfort of your Suzuki's A/C, be mindful of excessive use as it can increase fuel consumption. Use it sparingly, at lower levels, or consider opening the windows for fresh air on your drive.
7. Avoid Idling
Whenever you are parked or waiting, turn off your engine to prevent unnecessary fuel consumption. Excessive idling burns fuel needlessly.
8. Take Efficient Routes
Opt for the shortest and smoothest routes possible, avoiding congested or obstructed roads. This helps your engine work efficiently and reduces fuel usage.
9. Stay Aware of Traffic Conditions
Staying alert while driving will help minimize sudden stops and rapid acceleration to ensure you are making the most of your fuel.
10. Stick to the Speed Limit
Excessive speeds burn through your fuel at rapid rates. Following the speed limit helps you minimize extravagant fuel consumption.
