Fuel efficiency is an important issue for fleets in terms of operating cost and impact. Increase efficiency with a combination of technology, training, and proactive management. Route optimization is the first step. GPS Tracking Systems from TruckX uses real-time data to give the best route and avoid wasteful miles and fuel. Even vehicle telematics data lets fleet managers notice waste, idling, or low speeds and take steps to correct them on time.
Training drivers is another important part. If you educate drivers on fuel-saving driving – slow speeds, slower braking, less vehicle overfill – you can save a ton of money. Rewards for safe driving behavior in the form of performance monitoring can also be used to make people comply. Vehicle care at a regular interval gives you the best fuel mileage. It is important to do things such as inflation your tires, fuel with premium fuel, and have your engine tune-up regularly to save on fuel.
GPS and telematics together with TruckX solutions provide real-time monitoring of fleet performance for managers to spot trends and take action. Data-driven decisions like making deliveries in off-peak times or tracking down the wrong vehicles can slash fuel expenses by half.
