Eco-driving assistance
Eco-driving assistance assists and encourages the driver to adopt Eco-driving by providing information to the driver about the current fuel consumption, energy use efficiency and appropriate gear selection taking into account engine and transmission efficiency, vehicle speed and rate of acceleration etc. Apart from displaying instantaneous and mean fuel consumption on the instrument panel (from the on-board computer), there can be an “Eco-drive Indicator”, which indicates when the vehicle is being operated in a fuel-efficient manner with respect to driveline efficiency. The measure also informs the driver when a gear shift is appropriate.
