Poor fuel efficiency in Suzuki APVs can be caused by:

Old Spark Plugs: Worn-out spark plugs can reduce combustion efficiency, leading to poor fuel economy. Replacing them regularly can help improve performance and fuel efficiency.
Clogged Air Filter: A dirty o r clogged air filter can reduce airflow to the engine, causing it to consume more fuel. Changing the air filter at regular intervals can help improve mileage.
Low Tire Pressure: Underinflated tires cause increased rolling resistance, which can decrease fuel efficiency. Ensuring tires are properly inflated can improve gas mileage.
Faulty Oxygen Sensors: Malfunctioning oxygen sensors can affect fuel combustion and efficiency. If the sensor is not working correctly, it may need replacement.
Aggressive Driving: Sudden acceleration, speeding, and heavy braking increase fuel consumption. Driving more smoothly and maintaining consistent speeds can improve fuel efficiency.
Prevention & Resolution: Regularly maintain the vehicle, such as changing spark plugs, air filters, and tires. Additionally, driving more carefully and ensuring regular engine diagnostics can help improve fuel economy.
