Tips and tricks
for reducing gas consumption
- Avoid
idling your engine unnecessarily; you will save between 1.1
and 4 litres an hour.
- Respect
the speed limit. Driving at 120 km/h instead of 100 increases
your consumption by up to 20%.
- In
cold weather, never warm your engine up for longer than 30
seconds, then drive off without accelerating hard.

CAA-Quebec and the environment
CAA-Quebec seeks to help protect the environment by, among other
things, promoting efficient use of the automobile and by encouraging
carpooling and travel by public transit.
But because we are well aware than many people quite simply cannot do
without their vehicle, CAA-Quebec firmly believes that the automobile
is both part of the problem and part of the solution. That’s why
CAA-Quebec provides its members—and the community at large—with
guidance and advice in their motoring choices.
