How can higher speed affect fuel or energy consumption?

406. How can higher speed affect fuel or energy consumption?

It has no effect once the vehicle is moving.
It reduces aerodynamic resistance.
✓ It can increase consumption because air resistance rises.
It always reduces consumption.

As speed increases, aerodynamic resistance generally rises, so the vehicle needs more energy to maintain that speed. Driving smoothly at an appropriate speed can therefore reduce fuel or energy consumption.
