How do I know my car's actual mileage?

Fill your tank full, reset the trip meter, drive normally until near empty, fill again and note the litres. Divide the km driven by litres filled. Repeat 3 times for an accurate average.

Why does my actual mileage differ from the manufacturer's claim?

Manufacturer figures are from lab tests under ideal conditions. Real-world mileage is affected by traffic, AC usage, driving style, tyre condition, and vehicle load.

Is CNG cheaper than petrol for long trips?

CNG is typically 50–60% cheaper per km than petrol. However, CNG tanks have limited range (150–250 km), and pump availability on highways can be unpredictable.

Does driving speed affect fuel cost?

Yes, most cars achieve optimal fuel efficiency between 45–65 km/h. Driving above 80 km/h significantly increases air resistance and fuel consumption.
