Drive like you're riding a bicycle
I have a suggestion, get a bicycle instead of the car. Exercise ki exercise and saving bhi.
I really liked this thread....gud one....
because its not possible in karachi to do hypermiling, car behind u will horn at u
How will that cause accidents

No fun in driving car like this.... And u will be saving negligable amount (hardly 500 rs a month) and by driving slowly u r creating the traffic.....
Its not possible in cities of pakistan.... but i can understand in abroad
Do not create safety hazard jst to save 500rs a month.... my 3 cents

the saving is more than Rs. 500 a monthwhen i hypermile, my lancer gives 14.5 km/l local and when i don't, it gives 12.5 km/l local without AC in both situationsi save more than Rs. 500 in a single day
I doubt that.
Do you know petrol is 104 Rs/L?
Even if hypermiling gives you 3KPL more, you'll be saving more than 1k Rs per day in a city like Islamabad.
My total mileage per month is 520km per month
13kmpl gives 4200rs11 kmpl gives 5000rs
800rs is nothing Negligable.
Its better to tune car, thn to do hypermiling and ruin fun of driving....
another tip is to remove ac compressor during winter....
i just installed rev counter in my alto and i tried this shifted gears at 2000 rpm just in few places i went more then 3000rpm and was going in 5th at 60kph at 1500rpm engine quite and well i some how filled cng on sunday and did 90km with it mix ac scene and still half tank is left so with this technique i still can run 80 km in that tank
Great thread! we all know that light foot on the pedal gives better fuel economy but after reading your post i have started doing it more cautiously. im not a chronic hypermiler yet i have seen significant improvement in my car's fuel average. i saved 14-16 l of petrol on a round trip from islamabad to lahore via motorway. good job sharing this!
Copy Paste Waste of Space
Toyota corolla XLI giving this on local drive. Allama iqbal town to DHA daily trip. Very useful information.

Thanks to guidance of OP I have crossed the psychological barrier of 16kpl today Alhumdolellah but it was very hard not to let cross the needle 100kph limit while being on motorway. It was with full time ac but blower was set on 1.Please do say ma sha Allah. Car is 2k10 gli with 32k km clocked on odo.
Avg dropped after I pushed it lil bit in the end.

Congratulations. . Keep saving.You can easily save 50K Rs per year
got 130KMs in Rs 258 CNG !! yes!! 100% verified as gas tank ws fully empty. pressure was only 120/130 PSI. Lancers CNG Jhelum Bridge GT rd. I thought woukd max last till Gujar khan or a bit ahead near mandra. went to CMH rwp . then gave car to driver to fill CNG. he roamed about but couldn't get ot as it was closed in pindi (talking about the days when CNG was only open in potohar region). then went to saddar on same gas. I shifted to petrol after 130KMs as thought would end anytime and if on a junctionmin saddar would be troublesome.car is a 2007 alto Vxr. no AC and hypermiled !! no one believes the figures but I have a witness to this lolz! so literally costed me Rs2/KM which nowadays is the cost/KM on a CD 70! all thanks to the wonderful info shared on this thread . have achieved 300KMs in a tank of CNG on same car. car has 165 yokos on stock rims. car is 110k driven. im the only owner since new! just periodic maintenance on time and always check tire pressure on weeklyt basis especially when going out of city. maintained speeds at 80KMPH and v smooth gear shifting . 5thh gear between 50-60
Got 524 km in full tank from 8th gen civic manual with light foot with AC that too locally! Beat that guys.
