Environmentally Responsible Driving
Not everyone owns a hybrid, but environmentally responsible driving is something everyone can do. Â We are celebrating Earth Day this weekend. Kia Motors is a Top 50 Global Green Brand and an ambitious Road Map 2020 initiative that advances environmentally friendly automotive technologies and positions the company as a leader in the low emissions car market.
The Post and Courier recently reported that Charleston is on the American Lung Association’s shortlist of U.S. with the cleanest air. At the same time, we are constantly reminded of increasing population and traffic issues. What can you do to help protect our local environment and reduce your carbon footprint? These small measures add up to a lot.
- Routine Preventative Maintenance keeps your car running at optimal efficiency, pollute less and reduce toxic emissions
- Maintain Proper Tire Pressure for improved fuel efficiency
- Change Your Engine Air Filter to run engine more efficiently
- Drive the Speed Limit to use less gas
- Use Air Conditioning Judiciously
- Eliminate Excess Weight for improved fuel efficiency
- Use Landfill Collection for designated disposal of oil, tires and other automotive waste
