Fuel consumption figures are a major deciding factor for people looking to buy new or used cars. Fuel prices have reached an all-time high and it is getting increasingly difficult to fulfill the energy needs of our cars and our driving styles.
If this worry sounded familiar to you, definitely consider giving this article a thorough read because this article will serve as a useful guide to help you learn about fuel consumption for cars in general. And Suzuki vehicles in particular.
Moreover, we have mentioned some easy-to-follow tips that will help you improve fuel average by reducing your fuel consumption and hence will help you save a lot of money.
But before we start, let’s talk about some basic terms that will enable you to make use of this article in a better way.
Fuel efficiency is a term that is commonly used in the automobile industry and generally refers to the ability of a vehicle to extract sufficient energy from fuel. Vehicles that are capable of extracting more energy from limited fuel are considered to be fuel-efficient and investing in fuel-efficient vehicles always proves to be a ‘worth it’ investment.
All cars are not fuel-efficient, there are set standards that describe whether or not a vehicle is fuel-efficient. Ideally, a vehicle can be awarded the label of being fuel-efficient if it requires less than 6 liters of fuel per 100 km.
Notable examples of these fuel-efficient vehicles include Suzuki Alto, Suzuki WagonR and Suzuki Cultus. All of the vehicle models mentioned offer great fuel mileage.
Let us now move on to some tips that will help you reduce your Fuel Average.

By increasing the speed of your vehicle you also increase the aerodynamic drag that directly affects the amount of fuel your vehicle needs. Driving 100 km/h vs 120 km/h alone can reduce your fuel consumption by 15%.
By anticipating the traffic conditions beforehand and keeping your vehicle at a steady acceleration you can improve your Fuel Average and fuel efficiency.
Keeping your vehicle’s tire air pressure at recommended levels can greatly improve fuel efficiency as well. Even if 1 of your car’s wheels is underinflated by 2 PSI, it can increase fuel consumption by at least 1%.
Using air-conditioners constantly while traveling can put extra load on the engine of your vehicle which can reduce its capability to function efficiently and therefore increase dependency on fuel.
If it is very windy around, it would be better to not roll down your window. It increases the aerodynamic drag that forces your engine to work harder. Subjecting it to wear and tear and thereby increasing fuel demand.
Keep this in mind especially when you are stuck in traffic for long hours. Or having a road side chai with your friends or family.
Most importantly, investing in a good quality fuel-efficient vehicle. For example, getting yourself a Suzuki Alto or Suzuki Cultus can prove to be a very good decision. Both financially and in terms of the peace of mind and convenience that it offers.
At this point, you might be wondering, what is it about Suzuki that makes it stand out amongst all other car brands available.
Suzuki can be an ideal choice for you because of the unique features that Suzuki cars have to offer. For example, its incredible power to weight ratio and high compression ratios that can reach up to 12:1. High compression ratio improves thermal efficiency which subsequently improves fuel efficiency.
Apart from this many Suzuki cars contain an All-aluminum engine, a well-balanced crankshaft, and a lightweight flywheel that ensures good fuel economy, optimized gear ratios for city and highway driving with excellent fuel mileage, and the list could go on and on!
The Suzuki Alto has a combined (city + highway) average > 22km/l, Cultus has a combined (city + highway) average >18 km/l and WagonR has a combined (city + highway) average >16 km/l, and all of these facts and figures are based entirely on the feedback we have received from our customers and truly sheds light on the incredible fuel mileage that you can benefit from by getting yourself a vehicle from Suzuki.
Moreover, Suzuki uses high tensile steel in chassis components in the manufacturing of Alto and Cultus. It helps reduce weight while simultaneously increasing the vehicle’s rigidity and making it more durable.
So these were a few reasons why you should consider getting a Suzuki car for yourself. Especially during these times where fuel-efficient cars are becoming essential to have.
