Description

Subject-matter literature

Explanation

Correct answer: Using the engine to reduce driving speed.

Economical driving, also called eco-driving, involves operating a vehicle in a way that minimises fuel consumption. The key is to anticipate the situation on the road, accelerate and brake smoothly, and use engine braking. For example, when approaching the bend shown in the picture, you should take your foot off the accelerator earlier instead of braking sharply just before it.
