Save fuel in your motorhome: TÜV Süd tips to reduce consumption

Fuel consumption of a motorhome depends on vehicle type and load. To save, it is recommended to control weight, use cruise control, and avoid unnecessary trips at the campsite.

TÜV Süd has published tips for reducing fuel consumption in motorhomes. Key advice includes reducing weight by emptying the grey water tank and limiting fresh water, and choosing routes with less elevation change. On highways, using cruise control and avoiding sudden acceleration is recommended. Tire pressure should be checked before every long trip.

TÜV Süd has issued recommendations for reducing fuel consumption in motorhomes. Before departure, it is advisable to declutter the motorhome, including emptying the wastewater tank and limiting fresh water supply. When planning a route, prefer highways over mountain passes to avoid elevation changes. Using cruise control, avoiding roof boxes, and maintaining correct tire pressure also reduce consumption.

TÜV Süd has issued recommendations for reducing fuel consumption in motorhomes. Before departure, it is advisable to declutter the motorhome, empty the grey water tank, and carry only the necessary amount of fresh water. When planning a route, prefer highways with less elevation change. On highways, use cruise control, avoid sudden acceleration, and store cargo inside rather than on the roof. Proper tire pressure is also important.

TÜV Süd has published tips for reducing fuel consumption when traveling by motorhome. Key measures include decluttering the vehicle (including emptying the gray water tank and limiting fresh water), choosing routes with less elevation change, avoiding roof racks, and maintaining correct tire pressure. Using cruise control on highways and avoiding high engine revs are also advised.

TÜV Süd has published tips for reducing fuel consumption in motorhomes. Key measures include reducing weight by decluttering, draining grey water and limiting fresh water; choosing routes with fewer elevation changes instead of scenic mountain passes; maintaining a steady speed on highways using cruise control; avoiding roof racks due to increased aerodynamic drag; and regularly checking tire pressure, which is often too low, increasing rolling resistance.

TÜV Süd has published tips for reducing fuel consumption in motorhomes. Key measures include decluttering the vehicle, choosing the right route, and checking tire pressure. Additionally, accelerating briskly with early upshifts and avoiding high revs is advised.

TÜV Süd experts have issued tips to reduce fuel consumption when traveling by motorhome. Key measures include reducing weight by decluttering, draining the gray water tank, and limiting fresh water supply, as well as choosing routes with less elevation change. Additionally, using cruise control, avoiding high revs, and removing roof boxes to reduce aerodynamic drag are recommended. Regularly checking tire pressure is also crucial, as underinflation increases rolling resistance.

TÜV Süd experts have given tips on reducing fuel consumption when traveling by motorhome. Before departure, it is recommended to declutter the motorhome, empty the gray water tank, and take only the necessary amount of fresh water. When choosing a route, highways should be preferred over mountain passes, as fewer altitude changes and steady driving reduce consumption. It is also important to avoid high speeds due to the quadratic increase in air resistance, use cruise control on free highways, shift gears early, and avoid roof boxes. Regularly checking tire pressure according to manufacturer recommendations, especially before long trips, also helps save fuel.
