Correct answer
Urban travel with frequent stops and acceleration.
Urban stop-and-go travel with frequent acceleration. Repeatedly regaining speed and idling uses fuel; the effect depends on the vehicle and trip. Not every urban road always consumes more than every interurban road, nor is there a fixed ranking against tyre effects. Maintain the vehicle and manufacturer-recommended tyre pressure; do not overinflate to try to save fuel.
