Can I Improve My Gas Milage by Hypermiling?
Put simply, hypermiling is a method for changing your driving habits with the goal to get better gas mileage out of your car. The term hypermiling was used by Wayne Gerdes and describes people who strive to exceed the EPA fuel economy rating of their vehicle. Techniques used in hypermiling can, and do, generate savings in fuel. Hypermilers who drive conventional vehicles can often match the mileage of an equivalent hybrid. This is accomplished by eliminating aggressive driving. With gas prices setting records daily, it’s no wonder there is so much buzz about this driving technique.
