Driving Conditions: Urban driving involves many stops and starts, which use a lot of fuel. However, a car cruising constantly on the highway will make the engine work less. Additionally, heavy traffic and short trips, as well as idling, all boost fuel burn.
Climate Control Usage: Excessive use of air conditioning systems and heating systems affects fuel efficiency. These systems add additional load to the engine, which increases fuel consumption.
Terrain: When you drive on uneven roads, the engine must work harder to get up steep inclines; this makes the car use up more fuel. Thus, flat and consistent roads can help increase fuel economy.
Driving Style: Fuel economy is also affected by how you drive, i.e., if you are speeding all over town or accelerating too fast and braking hard, your car will use more fuel. A steadier driving style reduces the rate of fuel consumption.
