One of the simplest—and most overlooked—ways? Reduce the weight your vehicle carries.
Heavy Loads, Heavier Fuel Bills
According to the NRMA, a car loaded to its maximum weight can burn up to 24% more fuel. All those roof racks stacked with awnings, camping gear, and 4x4 equipment might make adventures possible—but when they’re not in use, they’re silently draining your fuel efficiency.
