In order to get better fuel efficiency returns from your car, there are some points that you can keep in mind while driving such as keeping a check on tyre air pressure, timely service your car, maintain proper gear to RPM ratio, do not accelerate the car unnecessarily, drive your car at economical speeds, etc.

Yeah Dude It Has Nothing To Do With The Car. Around 2017-2018 The Automatic Transmission Wasn't Developed Much And Was Less Fuel Efficient So You Will Have to live with it....

Yes, now I have started driving the same way as I used to earlier. Could there be any other issue eg. gearbox were off or some other issue?
