Which of the following is the least likely to decrease fuel consumption of a hybrid vehicle?
A)Low-rolling resistance tires
B)Increased aerodynamic drag
C)Stop-start systems
D)Lighter and less powerful engines

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Increased aerodynamic drag actually increases fuel consumption by making the vehicle less efficient at cutting through the air, thus requiring more energy to maintain speeds. The other options listed contribute to decreasing fuel consumption by either reducing the energy needed to move and maintain the vehicle's motion or by improving efficiency in how fuel is used.
