  • Every so often, take a moment and check your battery to ensure you’ve got the power necessary to start your Toyota under any circumstance.
  • Keep an eye on tire pressure – losing just a few pounds of pressure in your tires can hurt fuel economy and shorten tire life significantly.
  • Be aware that the stop-and-go nature of urban and suburban driving is harder on your vehicle than steady long-distance driving.
  • Take the time and read your Toyota Owner’s Manual. It will tell you everything you need to know about your vehicle.

Maximize Your Mileage

  • Everyone wants to burn less fuel. So when you’re on the open highway, use your Toyota’s cruise control (if equipped).
  • Slow down for hills. Maintaining your speed up a hill means opening your vehicle’s throttle, which burns more gas. On down hills, use gravity to help increase speed and improve fuel economy.
  • You should only accelerate when you have to, and only as much as you need to. Avoid jackrabbit starts, bring your Toyota to speed with a light right foot, and maintain smooth progress on the road.
  • When you need to slow down or stop, get off the gas as soon as you can. Use your brakes when you need to, but allow the other forces working on your vehicle to help slow you down.
  • When you need to slow down or stop, get off the gas as soon as you can. Use your brakes when you need to, but allow the other forces working on your vehicle to help slow you down.
