How much fuel would you save driving on two half tanks of fuel rather than one full tank?
We all know that more weight requires more energy to move it. If a car has more fuel in it, it has more weight, hence more energy,hence more fuel required to move it.
Ignoring all other factors such as more trips to the fuel pump and driving conditions etc, how much fuel would you save by using to half tanks of fuel opposed to one full tank?
Lets assume a 50 litre tank and a car that goes to 35mpg (imperial gallon)

Not enough to warrant doubling the number of trips you have to make to the gas station.
There are quite a few variables that would go in that you aren’t taking into account: weight of vehicle, size of tank, fuel efficiency of engine, etc.
it depends on the vehicle on how much you would save if i had to guess maybe on a small car 5-10%
