Toyota Fortuner Mileage

Several factors impact the Toyota Fortuner mileage figures:

• Driving Conditions: Mileage is best when driving on well-paved highways and roads. It will reduce when driving in stop-start city traffic or congested areas. Similarly, hilly regions reduce mileage due to continuous gear changing.

• Driving Habits: Aggressive starts, sudden braking, and high speeds will lower mileage. Maintain a steady pace with gradual acceleration and braking. Further, high idling and excessive AC usage impact mileage. Moderate AC use and avoid idling.

• Maintenance: Lack of routine servicing, such as oil changes, air filter cleaning, etc., increases friction, reducing mileage. Ensure the vehicle is well maintained as per the guidelines. Further issues, such as blocked fuel injectors, clogged air filters, etc., also reduce mileage if unchecked.

• Road and Weather Conditions: Mileage is lower in extreme weather, such as severe cold or very hot conditions, due to increased AC usage. Rainy weather with wet roads also slightly reduces mileage. Further broken roads and debris also contribute to reduced economy.

• Loading and Add-ons: The heavier the vehicle load, the lower the mileage. Remove any unnecessary luggage to reduce the load. Similarly, modifications like bull bars and roof racks affect the economy. Use add-ons only when required.
