The best speed for economy is generally the slowest you can go in top gear. Anything higher than that is compromising to there faster.



There's a thread on here somewhere about speed vs MPG. I think the only notable exception was in a Corolla, which actually delivered its best economy in 4th gear, rather than 5th (?)
