Thirsty cars are less eco-friendly and can be costly to re-fuel. Find out how green your car is with our facts and figures section.
Don't be put off by the jargon. Modern hybrids, such as Toyota Prius and Honda Civic, combine petrol and electric power for greener motoring. Our handy car glossary explains how hybrid technology works.

Don't fill up your car at the petrol station if you only do short distance driving. A full tank is heavy and increases fuel consumption.
Under inflated tyres increase fuel bills as the resistance between the tyres and the road is greater. They can be dangerous, too.
