Question 8197

For efficient driving and reduced fuel consumption, where should cargo be placed in a passenger car whenever possible?

  1. On the rear seats.
  2. On a roof rack or in a rooftop cargo box.
  3. In the trunk.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: In the trunk.

In the trunk, as in the image. On a roof rack or in a rooftop cargo box, the load meets the airflow and holds the car back, so you use more fuel, especially at high speeds. If left loose on the rear seats, it can be thrown forward during hard braking.
