How Do You Save Gas By Hypermiling?
Hypermiling is a new way of driving that allows you to get more miles per gallon and can increase your gas mileage by 20 mpg and help you save gas. Here is how you do it. When you go above 38 mph in most cars, you lose mileage. For every 5 mph above 55, he says you can lose as much as 10 percent of your fuel economy. So slowing down can save you gas. Drive the speed limit. Driving without brakes or in hypermiling lingo,d.w.b. is all about coasting. You need to maintain a constant speed and not let it get ahead of you when you are driving in traffic, so that when traffic starts to slow back down you’ll catch up. This can be tricky as in a lot of cases when ever you allow distance between you and another car, another car will take advantage of it and cut in front of you. Do it when possible — but be careful. The forced-auto stop is when you turn off your car and coast. In hybrids, the internal combustion engine shuts off at stops to conserve fuel; the electric batteries keep the car run
