The dash comes to mind.
On the highway, most energy is lost to aerodynamic drag. So the biggest gain would be fixing the aerodynamic drag.
However, especially in modern cars, the extreme weight creates sigificant rolling resistance.
If you could lower considerably the aerodynamic drag and/or rolling resistance you'd get a lot better fuel mileage.
