Nissan Rogue (T33) 2021-Present Owner’s Manual & User Guide: Fuel Efficient Driving Tips

Follow these Fuel Efficient Driving Tips to help maximize fuel economy in your Nissan Rogue.

1. Use smooth accelerator and brake input.

  • Avoid rapid acceleration and sudden stops.
  • Apply the accelerator and brakes smoothly.
  • Maintain a consistent speed and coast when possible.

2. Maintain steady speed.

  • Look ahead to anticipate stops and traffic flow.
  • Time your speed with traffic lights to reduce unnecessary stopping.
  • Smoother driving improves fuel efficiency.

3. Use A/C efficiently at higher speeds.

  • Under 40 MPH (64 km/h), open windows are more efficient.
  • Above 40 MPH (64 km/h), using A/C is more efficient due to reduced drag.
  • Use recirculation mode to reduce cooling load.

4. Drive at economical speeds and distances.

  • Following posted speed limits improves fuel economy.
  • Maintain a safe distance to reduce unnecessary braking.
  • Anticipate speed changes for smoother acceleration.
  • Select the proper gear range for conditions.

5. Use cruise control.

  • Cruise control helps maintain steady speed.
  • Especially effective on flat highways for saving fuel.

6. Plan the shortest route.

  • Use maps or navigation to reduce travel time and distance.

7. Avoid idling.

  • Turn off the engine when safely stopped for 30–60 seconds.

8. Use automated toll passes.

  • They allow you to maintain speed through toll booths and reduce stop-and-go driving.

9. Winter warm-up.

  • Limit idling to preserve fuel.
  • Most engines need no more than 30 seconds of idling at startup.
  • Driving warms the engine faster than idling.

10. Keep your vehicle cool.

  • Park in shade or covered areas when possible.
  • Open windows briefly when entering a hot vehicle to cool the interior faster.

Increasing fuel economy

  • Keep your engine properly tuned.
  • Follow the recommended maintenance schedule.
  • Maintain correct tire pressure; low pressure reduces fuel economy.
  • Ensure wheels are correctly aligned.

    Poor alignment increases tire wear and fuel consumption.

  • Use engine oil with the recommended viscosity.
