Question 4518

- Yes, it increases fuel consumption.
- Yes, it reduces fuel consumption.

Correct answer: Yes, it increases fuel consumption.
Yes. With the windows open, air enters the passenger compartment and slows the car down, so the engine needs more fuel to maintain the same speed. The faster you go, the greater the effect.
