Fill the fuel tank until the nozzle automatically clicks off.
Reset trip counter to zero.
Record the total gallons (liters) needed to refill.
Follow one of the simple calculations above.

Direct calculation is the
recommended source of information
about your actual fuel economy.
Using frequency of fill-ups or taking
fuel gauge readings are NOT
accurate measures of fuel economy.
Fuel economy may improve over the
first several thousand miles
(kilometers).

The A/C

which makes it use more fuel. Use
the fresh-air ventilation when
possible.

Combine several short trips into
one. A warmed-up engine is more
fuel efficient than a cold one.
