Best way to accelerate - Toyota Yaris Forums

Personally I think around 3K RPM is the best point to shift for fuel economy. Lugging an engine is got particularly efficient or good for the engine and clutch.

3000 is pretty racey - I usually shift at 2500 during "quick" acceleration and 2000-2200 for low/conservative acceleration. I never let it get rough, but it will accelerate smoothly with gentle throttle from 1600 RPM. What do you consider "lugging"?
