Mercedes-Benz Vehicles, Concept Cars, and the Mercedes Lifestyle

If you’ve been driving your used Mercedes-Benz around town lately, you’ve probably noticed that gas prices are starting to inch back up. They are nowhere near where they were a few months ago, but gas prices are starting to increase once again. Luckily, there are some things you can do while driving your used Mercedes-Benz to save yourself some gas money and squeeze more miles from every gallon.

• Slow down. One of the most efficient methods for saving gas is to drive slower. Going 70 mph in a 55 mph zone will not save any gas and you might even get a ticket from it. Slow down in your used Mercedes-Benz and you’ll be a more efficient driver.
• Accelerate gradually. “Punching it” from a red light or trying to get up to your desired speed in three seconds or less will destroy your gas mileage. Instead, take your time and accelerate slowly to get more miles from each gallon of fuel.
• Shut it off in the drive-thru. If you find yourself waiting in a restaurant’s drive-thru, turning your used Mercedes-Benz off will save gas instead of leaving it running.

Just because you are driving Mercedes vehicles doesn’t mean you don’t like to save money. Use these fuel-saving tips to get more from each dollar you spend at the pump.
