Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a driving style that can reduce fuel consumption by 10-15%. The main principles are: change up early (at 2000 rpm for petrol, 1500 rpm for diesel), anticipate traffic so you can release the accelerator early and need to brake as little as possible, maintain a constant speed via cruise control on the motorway and avoid idling.
