One way to improve the gas mileage of your Ford EcoSport is to make sure your tires are properly inflated. Underinflated tires can decrease fuel efficiency by up to 3%. Check your owner's manual for the recommended tire pressure and make sure to check them regularly.

Avoid idling your car for long periods of time. This not only wastes gas but also causes unnecessary wear and tear on your engine. If you know you will be stopped for more than 30 seconds, it is more fuel-efficient to turn off your engine and restart it when you are ready to move again.

Another way to improve gas mileage is to avoid aggressive driving. Quick acceleration and hard braking can decrease fuel efficiency by up to 33%. Try to maintain a steady speed and anticipate traffic to avoid unnecessary braking.
