One of the easiest ways to increase fuel efficiency on your Vauxhall Astra is to make sure your tires are properly inflated. Under-inflated tires can decrease fuel efficiency by up to 3%. You can check your tire pressure using a tire gauge, and make sure it matches the recommended pressure in your car's manual.

Another way to improve fuel efficiency is by avoiding excessive idling. If you're stuck in traffic for more than a minute, it's better to turn off your engine instead of leaving it running. Idling consumes fuel without getting you anywhere, so turning off the engine can save you money on gas.

Regular maintenance is also crucial for fuel efficiency. Make sure to get your Vauxhall Astra serviced according to the recommended schedule. This includes changing the air filter, oil, and spark plugs, which can all impact fuel efficiency.

Lastly, try to avoid carrying unnecessary weight in your car. The more weight your Vauxhall Astra has to carry, the more fuel it will consume. Remove any items from your trunk or backseat that you don't need for your trip.
