Conditions

1 mpg [0.4 km/L] is lost for every 400 lb [180 kg] of weight carried).

• Adding certain accessories to your vehicle (for example bug

deflectors, rollbars/light bars, running boards, ski/luggage racks) may

reduce fuel economy.

• Using fuel blended with alcohol may lower fuel economy.

• Fuel economy may decrease with lower temperatures during the first

8–10 miles (12–16 km) of driving.

• Driving on flat terrain offers improved fuel economy as compared to

driving on hilly terrain.

• Transmissions give their best fuel economy when operated in the top

cruise gear and with steady pressure on the gas pedal.

• Close windows for high speed driving.

EPA window sticker

Every new vehicle should have the EPA window sticker. Contact your

authorized dealer if the window sticker is not supplied with your vehicle.

The EPA window sticker should be your guide for the fuel economy

comparisons with other vehicles.

It is important to note the box in the lower left corner of the window

sticker. These numbers represent the Range of MPG (L/100 km)

expected on the vehicle under optimum conditions. Your fuel economy

may vary depending upon the method of operation and conditions.
