The gliding technique - or predictive driving - is a driving method that allows you to achieve fuel consumption around 62 miles per gallon with a Toyota Yaris Hybrid. Let's see how to do it in this video, guided by our YouTuber.

Predictive driving means anticipating the actions of other drivers to maximise efficiency, making few accelerations and decelerations. Keep the vehicle balanced between eco and charge to allow it to glide.

Braking should be gentle to recover energy. It is advisable to use the gliding technique when alone, as passengers may not always appreciate it, and when you know the road well to anticipate what you already know.

Naturally, the petrol engine will engage when going uphill. Follow the YouTuber in his ride to understand how this technique works.
