Previously, I didn't have enough money to buy a car, but now it's easier to buy a car than to maintain it. In addition to maintenance costs, annual inspection fees, and purchasing parking spaces, which require a significant amount of extra money, car fuel is a major expense. Below, the Chongqing refrigerated truck editor will talk about how to reduce the fuel consumption of refrigerated trucks.

Most car owners can shift gears and drive the vehicle after about half a minute of starting, and then drive in first gear for a certain distance before driving normally. If the winter in northern cities is too cold, the time to warm up the car can be appropriately extended. In addition, when the engine water temperature is too low, the computer will control the fuel injectors to spray more fuel. Long morning warm-up time or short driving distance can cause high fuel consumption. It is not advisable to simply wait in place for the vehicle's RPM to drop to normal or for the water temperature to rise to normal. So hot cars need to be appropriate. For refrigerated trucks, their purpose is to transport goods. Regardless of the distance, refrigerated trucks need to run around, so fuel consumption in this regard is necessary.

When the tire is not inflated enough, it will affect fuel consumption. When the tire pressure is too low, the contact area between the tire and the ground increases, and the driving resistance is greater, so the vehicle naturally becomes more waste of oil. The same principle applies to car models with the same displacement, model, load, etc. Assuming that car A uses the original tires while car B uses wider tires, car B will also consume more fuel than car A due to the increased driving resistance. Of course, if car owners inflate the tire pressure too much and replace tires with narrow ones, it will increase the possibility of tire blowouts, uneven tire wear, and reduce driving comfort. Correct tire pressure with original tires is another way to reduce fuel consumption in refrigerated trucks.

The refrigerated truck driver also wants to transport the goods to the destination as soon as possible. Sometimes, when it comes to new transportation points, the driver may experience a roundabout phenomenon because they cannot find the specific and accurate location. Alternatively, if encountering traffic congestion on the road, the driver may choose a less congested route between the starting point and the destination, or frequently change lanes to increase the total distance traveled. This will also increase additional fuel consumption. Planning a route and choosing a straight route before traveling can shorten the total distance and naturally reduce fuel consumption. When driving, start, refuel, and shift at a normal pace, and over time, you can save a lot of fuel. If driving on the road is not necessary, do not overtake frequently. Only by driving at a constant speed can fuel consumption be reduced. Do not add load to the car. Refrigerated trucks are designed to transport heavy goods, so don't put all unrelated things on the truck as it will be overloaded and fuel consumption will naturally increase.

The major resistance of a vehicle during operation comes from the air. If your vehicle has been involved in an accident and the body has already deformed, it may affect the aerodynamic performance of the vehicle. Even slight bumps or dents can affect fuel consumption, and excessive soil and snow accumulation on the body in winter are also burdens on the vehicle. So we need to keep the car body clean. The viscosity of engine oil is the main indicator of engine oil. Excessive selection of engine oil with higher viscosity will increase the resistance of engine components, which not only consumes power but also increases fuel consumption. Oil should be added according to the specified grade. Many times, the speed of the vehicle is already very high without corresponding upshifts, so as the engine speed increases, fuel consumption naturally skyrockets. It is advisable to refer to the reasonable speed and gear of the vehicle to choose the appropriate shifting timing. Another type is when the vehicle's speed is too low and the gear is still in the high position. The obvious feature of this situation is that the engine and body have started to shake and may stall at any time. At this time, some drivers may choose to increase the throttle, which means an increase in fuel injection. The solution to this situation is to downshift.

When refrigerated truck manufacturers stop to transport goods, it takes some time. Sometimes there are fewer goods, but sometimes there are more goods, so the transportation time is naturally longer. The driver sometimes turns off the engine and sometimes does not turn it off. Whenever the engine is started, the computer-controlled fuel injection amount will be relatively high, so frequent engine starts over a period of time will increase the fuel consumption of the vehicle. It is also a manifestation of 'car abuse'. So if it's time to turn off the engine, turn it off immediately, and frequent switching for a short period of time is also not advisable.
