Get the most bang for your buck at the gas station!

It doesn't matter if you have a new Scion sports car, the sub-compact Scion iQ or one of the more spacious models – you can easily help enhance the fuel economy by practicing a few small tips and tricks!

Tire pressure: It might seem silly to check the tire pressure when it comes to gas mileage and fuel economy, but it can actually make a difference! Having the tires properly inflated can help improve the fuel economy by as much as 3.3 percent! 
Customize: If you choose to customize your Scion, make sure that the proper wheels and tires are being used. Incorrect ones can lead to more resistance, which will hurt the car's fuel efficiency and negatively impact the mpg. 

This is a little bit of prep work you can do beforehand to make sure your car gets great fuel economy. However, even when you're behind the wheel there are some small tips and tricks that you can do to help out the fuel efficiency! 

  • Speed limit: Besides being a safety precaution, following the posted speed limit will also help your budget. Maintaining the speed in your new Scion near Charlotte might be difficult (especially if you're behind the wheel of the sporty Scion FR-S or Scion tC). However, besides helping you maintain control, following the speed limit will help out how many miles per gallon you're getting because fuel efficiency starts to decrease at higher speeds. 
  • Go with the flow of traffic: How often do you stop and start the car trying to weave in and out of slow lanes? Trying to arrive at your destination is understandable e, but trying to maneuver out of a traffic jam can use up a lot of fuel. Try to go with the flow and let your car roll along at a safe speed to conserve gas instead.
