Round 1
Ground Rules:•Total number of questions:12•10 points for correct answer no pass•Quiz master’s decision is final•Questions will be in True or False format
1. Idling your vehicle uses less fuel than turning the engine off and restarting it.
True or False
Answer: False
Idling your vehicle uses more fuel than turning the engine off and restarting it.
2. Having your tires inflated to the automaker's maximum recommended pressure does not make any significant difference in improving your gas mileage.
True or False
Answer:False
Having your tires inflated to the automaker’s maximum recommended pressure can improve gas mileage by as much as 6 per cent. For every 3lbs below recommended pressure, fuel economy goes down by about 1 per cent.
3. When driving at low speeds in the city, rolling your windows down instead of using air conditioning creates a slight improvement in gas mileage.
True or False
Answer: True
In slow moving traffic, open windows can be a fuel-conserving move. Such is not the case when highway driving, as the blowing breeze increases drag, making your vehicle work harder and use more gas.
4. Travelling at less congested times of the day makes no difference for gas savings.
True or False
Answer: False
Travelling at less congested times of the day helps to save gas because people are more apt to drive smoothly when there is less traffic.
5. Most times, repairs for air conditioner leaks can be put off until your car’s next major service appointment.
True or False
Answer:False
Some air conditioner units contain chlorofluorocarbons that can harm the environment. Air conditioner leaks should be repaired immediately.
6. A vehicle travelling at 85 km/h gets no better fuel economy than the same vehicle travelling at 100 km/h.
Answer: False
A vehicle travelling at 85 km/h gets about 15 per cent better fuel economy than the same vehicle travelling at 100 km/h.
7. A tire with a larger “footprint” on the road may have more rolling resistance than a smaller tire and therefore decrease fuel economy.
True or False
Answer: True
Low rolling resistance (LRR) tires are specifically designed to improve a vehicle’s fuel economy.
8. Cars always rank better in fuel economy than trucks and sports-utility vehicles.
True or False
Answer: False
Some smaller trucks and sports-utility vehicles rank better in fuel economy than some cars.
9. The Honda Civic Hybrid was the first sedan already in production to be made available with a hybrid powertrain.
True or False
Answer: True
It has since been followed by many other passenger cars.
10. It takes two minutes of idling your vehicle to waste the same amount of gas as turning your engine off and restarting it.
True or False
Answer: False
It takes only 30 seconds of idling to waste more gas than turning your engine off and restarting it.
11. Hybrids get much better fuel economy than diesel cars.
True or False
Answer: False
Hybrids and diesels get very similar fuel economies.
12. It does not make a difference which grade of gasoline you use at the gas pump, as long as you are careful not to drive aggressively.
True or False
Answer: False
• Use regular gasoline. Unless it is listed in the manual that your vehicle requires premium, high-octane fuels, using them won’t improve your fuel economy or performance.
