I just bought a Ford S-Max and the gas mileage is not as great as I expected. Are there any tips or tricks that can help improve the gas mileage? Is it worth upgrading to a hybrid model for better gas mileage?
ReplyHi Emma, congratulations on your new Ford S-Max! In order to improve gas mileage, there are a few things you can do. First, make sure you keep up with regular maintenance such as oil changes and tire rotations. This can help your car run more efficiently. Additionally, try to avoid aggressive driving and planning your routes to minimize stop and go traffic. As for upgrading to a hybrid model, it really depends on your personal preference and driving habits. It may be worth researching the fuel efficiency of the specific hybrid model you are interested in and comparing it to your current S-Max to see if it is worth the investment.
Hi Emma, another tip to improve gas mileage is to keep your car as lightweight as possible. Avoid carrying unnecessary items in your car and remove roof racks if you're not using them. Also, using cruise control on long highway drives can help keep your speed steady and improve gas mileage. In terms of upgrading to a hybrid, I suggest trying to test drive one to see if the improved gas mileage is noticeable and worth the cost.
