    Some Useful Tips from ICB.

    How to maximize fuel economy of your car to beat the petrol price hike!



    this post that we published a while agoMaintain your vehicle in top shape!


    Car Service


    First of all, a well maintained vehicle will perform better than a badly maintained vehicle and that applies to fuel economy as well. If you have not been changing your oil or servicing your vehicle at the prescribed intervals, time to kick that habit and do so right now as a happy engine is a frugal engine. Also, optimum tyre pressures and proper wheel alignment are what you need to focus on to ensure best mileage as wrong tyre pressures and improper wheel alignment by itself can reduce your mileage by 10-20%. And that figure is much more than the latest petrol price hike.


    Car pool is cool!

    You might not like your boss, but you might like his newly joined cute secretary, better still if she live just on the route you take to office everyday. Car pool and you can save a bunch of money and also develop great friendships. On a more serious note, car pooling is great idea now that the Indian cities are vehicle clogged to their limits. Lesser number of cars and for that matter even two wheelers on the roads means lesser traffic and thus you can reach much faster if more folks adopt car and bike pooling as a way of life. Not to mention the fact that even traffic jams are bearable if you have good company in the car.
