The ride should be smooth. Don't accelerate abruptly. Do not start off by jumping or with the accelerator pedal pressed to the floor; maintain a constant speed. Don't race from traffic light to traffic light. Try to maintain the speed of the traffic flow and then you won't have to change speed too often. If possible, try to avoid getting caught in heavy traffic. Maintain a safe distance from other vehicles at all times to reduce the need to brake frequently and to reduce brake wear.
Maintain a moderate speed. The higher the speed, the higher the fuel consumption. Driving at moderate speeds, especially on motorways, is one of the most effective means of reducing fuel consumption.
Do not rest your foot on the brake or clutch pedal. This leads to increased fuel consumption and accelerated wear of these systems. In addition, if the pedal is constantly pressed, the brakes overheat and lose effectiveness, which can lead to more serious consequences.
Monitor the condition of your tires. Maintain the required pressure in them. Over- or under-inflation of tires causes accelerated tire wear. Check your tire pressure at least once a month.
Make sure the wheel alignment angles are correct. Misalignment can be caused by hitting a curb or driving on rough ground. Incorrect wheel alignment causes accelerated tire wear, as well as other negative effects, including increased fuel consumption.
Keep your vehicle in good condition. To reduce fuel consumption and maintenance costs, perform vehicle maintenance within the timeframes and in the amounts specified in Section 5.
Keep your car clean. To ensure maximum vehicle life, keep your vehicle clean and protected from corrosion at all times. It is especially important to remove dirt, ice, etc. from the underbody, as they make the vehicle heavier, increasing fuel consumption and promoting corrosion.
Do not overload the vehicle. Do not carry excessively large loads. This will increase fuel consumption.
Do not allow the engine to idle for excessive periods of time. If you are waiting for someone or something (without being in the flow of traffic), stop the engine and restart it only before resuming driving.
Remember that your Hyundai's engine does not require a long warm-up. You can start driving as soon as it starts working steadily. However, in very cold weather, the warm-up time should be slightly increased.
Do not overload the engine by running it at low or excessively high speeds. Low RPM engine overload occurs when driving at low speeds in a gear that is too high. If this happens, shift into a lower gear. To avoid excessive engine speed, shift gears in a timely manner at the driving speeds indicated above.

Use the air conditioner taking into account the amount of engine power it consumes, which leads to a decrease in fuel economy.
Correct cornering
Avoid braking or changing gears when cornering, especially on wet roads. Ideally, corners should always be taken with smooth acceleration. By following these tips, you will minimize tire wear.
