Re: Hypermilers - Post SAFE High FE Driving Tips
WOT does not give optimum gas savings. From all the stuff I have seen, gentle acceleration is best.
One thing people forget when they figure on hard acceleration is that they may get to a speed they don't have to get to and have to use the brakes more which takes away any gains.
I recomend acceleration rates of slowly applied throttle up to around 1900 rpms (I wouldn't even go that high if I don't have traffic behind me)
