Hypermiling – Driving Techniques the Cool Kids Use!

Ok so what is Hypermiling? (Hyper Miling)

In a nutshell it’s fuel efficient driving to save gas and get better MPGs out of any vehicle or it could be looked at as the art of conservative driving to save gas and getting 30% better gas mileage on average.

Some drivers have been able to modify their driving habits to exceed the EPA estimates and go where no man has gone before in terms of squeezing every possible mile out of a gallon of gas. Many have become so talented at driving with minimal use of fuel that they have gotten 100 miles per gallon out of their vehicles and more. Through trial and error, hypermilers have learned certain extreme driving techniques that will drastically lower fuel consumption.

Here are some quick tips to make you a Hypermiler. :)

1) Drive a stick shift car or truck (duh)
2) Park and ride (bicycle)
3) Attend a driving clinic
4) Clean junk from your trunk
5) Let the most efficient driver drive
7) Remove unused roof racks
8) Check tire inflation regularly
9) Track your fuel consumption
10) Use a fuel consumption display
11) Stop speeding
12) Coast instead of braking
13) Use of Cruise Control
14) Find a route that’s easy on your vehicle
15) Turn off the car before putting it in park
16) Don’t leave the car running if not necessary
17) Get an oil change when you should
18) Balance those tires
19) Ridge Riding: If you want to save gas during or after a hard rain, hug the right side of your lane, or the shoulder if you’re already driving in the far right lane, to avoid driving in the puddles created by other drivers.
20) Downhill run: If you’re driving downhill, take your foot off the gas pedal and coast all the way down until you absolutely must brake or give your car a little more gas.
