Are Used Toyota Vehicles More Fuel Efficient?

It’s important to note that our Toyota vehicles improve every year, thanks to advances in technology and capability. That means new Toyota models are always going to be the most efficient option available.

But because our Toyota vehicles are designed with longevity and reliability in mind, the pre-owned vehicles available here at our dealership can really keep up when it comes to efficiency and fuel economy. Additionally, buying pre-owned can have a lower environmental impact overall, because it limits the greenhouse gasses produced in making a brand-new vehicle.

And the good news is that there are steps you can take to boost the fuel efficiency of your used Toyota vehicle on every ride, including some of the following:

• Reduce Excess Weight: Extra weight puts pressure on the essential parts in your car and requires a greater fuel use to go the same distance. While our used Toyota models are more than capable of carrying heavy loads, it’s a good idea to remove any unnecessary weight when possible.
• Drive on Highways: The ideal driving speed for fuel efficiency is between 55-65 miles per hour. When possible, stick to higher-speed roads like highways to boost your fuel economy, but don’t feel the need to drive above the speed limit.
• Get the Oil Changed: Oil that is old or dirty can slow down the powertrain system and make your vehicle run less efficiently. Scheduling routine oil changes is one of the best ways to keep your pre-owned Toyota vehicle running at the top of its game.
• Inflate the Tires: When tire pressure is low, it causes the rubber of the tire to drag on the surface of the road. Inflating the tires properly can have a huge impact on the efficiency of your vehicle.
