• Open windows at high speeds can reduce fuel
economy.
• Fuel economy is less in crosswinds and
headwinds.To help offset some of this loss, slow
down when driving in these conditions.
Keeping a vehicle in good operating condition is
important both for economy and safety. Therefore,
have an authorized Kia dealer perform scheduled
inspections and maintenance.
