Eco-Driving | Learn to drive: Expert skills

Would you like to save up to 30% of your current fuel costs by just changing the way you drive? Not everyone can afford to upgrade to the latest eco-friendly car models, so in this video, we will show how we can use 10 eco-driving tips to make a real difference to our fuel economy.

We will be driving a short route twice, and the only thing we will change will be the way we drive the car. We will reset the car’s average fuel economy indicator each time, and although it won’t give a 100% accurate result it will be good enough for comparison purposes. At the end of the video, we will use the results to estimate the savings over a whole year of driving - which should be interesting!
