Underinflated tyres increase drag. Check pressures monthly, especially in hot Turkish summers where heat affects air pressure.

Driving in a higher gear at low RPM reduces fuel use. Use cruise control on Turkish highways when conditions are safe.

Idling consumes fuel unnecessarily. In cities like Istanbul, this also reduces air pollution and engine wear.

Remove unused items from your boot or roof. Less weight means your engine works less, improving efficiency.

Remove them when not in use. On Turkish expressways, aerodynamic drag from roof boxes can reduce fuel economy by 10-20%.

Fewer stops and smoother flow save fuel. Apps like navigasyon or Google Maps are widely used in Turkey to avoid traffic.

Look ahead to avoid unnecessary acceleration. In Turkish urban areas, adjusting speed to traffic lights saves both time and fuel.

Change oil, air filters, and spark plugs on schedule. A tuned engine consumes less fuel and pollutes less.

Coasting to a stop saves fuel compared to braking late. Turkish drivers are encouraged to adopt smoother driving habits.

Air resistance grows exponentially at higher speeds. Stick to speed limits to save fuel and stay safe.

Don’t push the engine. Use gears to manage descent and keep revs low to prevent fuel wastage in Turkish terrain.

AC increases engine load. In moderate Turkish climates, use open windows at lower speeds and AC at higher speeds only.

Don’t rev a cold engine. It consumes more fuel and causes more wear. Short trips can worsen fuel use in cold regions.

In Turkish traffic, tailgating leads to erratic speed changes. A safe distance allows smoother driving and better fuel efficiency.

Sharp manoeuvres use more fuel and wear tyres faster. Smooth driving contributes to economy and control.

In cities like Ankara or İzmir, eco-driving also means choosing not to drive. Fewer vehicles reduce emissions overall.

Fewer cold starts and shorter routes save fuel. Plan shopping or school runs in one trip whenever possible.

Use AC instead of open windows above 80 km/h. This tip is useful on Turkish expressways where speed is consistent.

Turkey is expanding EV infrastructure. These vehicles benefit from regenerative braking and cleaner technology.

Gradual increases in speed let your engine work efficiently. Turkish eco-campaigns highlight this in public awareness efforts.

Trains often cause long waits in rural Turkey. Turning off the engine during delays is both eco-friendly and smart.

Dirty filters strain the engine and reduce fuel efficiency. Replace them as per the manufacturer’s schedule.

Especially in spring or autumn, natural airflow cools the cabin. But switch to AC for higher speeds to avoid drag.

Less fuel means fewer carbon emissions. It supports Turkey’s national goals for greener transportation and cleaner air.
