One thing you can do to improve the gas mileage of your Ford EcoSport is to make sure your tires are properly inflated. Under-inflated tires can decrease fuel efficiency by up to 3%. Also, try to avoid rapid acceleration and braking, as this can also use up more fuel.

Another tip is to avoid idling for too long. Idling for 10 minutes can use up to a quarter gallon of gas. So if you anticipate being stopped for more than 30 seconds, it's better to turn off your engine.

Using the air conditioning can also decrease your gas mileage. Try rolling down your windows at lower speeds instead of using the AC. And if it's hot out, try parking in a shaded area to keep your car cooler.
