Our future as needed. And the coming generations will appreciate that the earlier we start the practice of measures and actions that allow to create favorable conditions for our planet.
Anton Carreno, President of one of the leading passenger transport in Spain (Autos America), believes that “the trend of sustainability is not new, but for a decade already commented and tried to take measures that will be out, which is not penetrated and only a small percentage of cases became reality. Today he put up by any company accions in this direction, implies a lack of responsibility and commitment to the future. ” “Any employer operating in a responsible way to look at and look for this commitment among its employees, partners, suppliers, etc. and reward the work of sustainability”
The Autos America Company in addition to an excellent transport service, some of its added value is precisely a universal value: Sustainability in transport.
The company has since launched a year ago following measures:
Turn off the engine stops short. For example, level crossings, traffic lights or while waiting for someone. When restarting the engine, depress the accelerator.
– The engine brake not only has positive effects in terms of savings, but also with regard to exhaust emissions, road safety, traffic flow and convenience of travelers.
– The most efficient way is to make driving in the highest gears possible keeping the engine at low revs as the vehicle travels more energy with less effort. Thus, the correct use of the gearbox is vital to the economy, we must pay attention to the counter or be guided by the speedometer. In general, gasoline engines in acceleration and gear change to do when you have reached 2,000 or 2,500 rpm. As for diesel, we will do between 1,500 and 2,000 rpm.
– Helps save energy rational use of vehicle accessories. Consequently, use of power system elements such as air conditioning only when necessary and moderate temperatures so that the expense is less.
– The use of air conditioning increases fuel consumption, so you should not abuse it.
– Proper tuning can make the car consume up to 10% less fuel.
– Check pressure regularly monitor them and any abnormal wear.
– Never step on the accelerator when starting the vehicle. Simply provide the contact and if our car is gasoline can start driving. If, however, is diesel idling is desirable to leave the vehicle a few seconds.
– Remember that the first gear works as an arrangement between the vehicle standing and walking, so, use it sparingly.
– The appropriate speed shift points are between 2,000 and 2,500 vehicles and 2,000 gasoline in diesel. Get with these rapid changes underway, reduced consumption.
– If you need to slow down, retrásalo as possible. Without stepping on the accelerator more than 20 km / h in any gear engaged, our consumption is 0.0: a record for our pocketbook and the environment.
– Driving with higher gears, low speed and produces a minimum consumption.
– You have to look far and be attentive to the road. This means that we can anticipate events and to avoid abrupt and aggressive driving, with which we consume more.
