Eco Driver

Visit every stop on a small tank of fuel and finish with as much left as you can. Idling, reversing, wall bumps and wandering all burn fuel, so plan your route and drive smoothly. Stars are won for the fuel you keep.

How to play

  1. Drive the little car with the arrow keys or the on-screen buttons, and stop wholly inside each yellow bay in the order shown. Hold still for a moment to count the stop.
  2. Watch the fuel reading beside the clock. It falls even when you stand still with the engine running, and falls faster with the throttle down.
  3. Reach the last stop with fuel to spare. The stars at the end depend on how much of the tank is left compared with a careful reference run of the same route.

Tips and strategy

  • Coasting costs far less than driving: take your foot off the power as soon as you can see the stop ahead, and let the drag slow the car.
  • Take the shortest sensible path. A wrong turn can cost as much fuel as a whole extra stop.
  • Bumping a wall slows you down and wastes the speed you had built up, so a gentle, wide line round the corner is also the thrifty one.

FAQ

How are the stars decided?
Each route has a reference run by a careful driver. Three stars need most of the fuel that run kept, two stars need about half of it, and one star is for finishing at all.
Does the car really use less fuel when I coast?
In the game, yes: idle burns a small share of full-throttle burn. Real cars work in a similar way, which is why anticipating the road ahead is a classic fuel-saving habit.
