Eco-driving telematics solutions by ATRAMS for sustainable fleet management and enhanced safety.

Eco Driving

The growing global population and advancements in technology have significantly increased the demand for transportation. Driving behaviors, such as aggressive acceleration, harsh braking, sharp cornering, and speeding, directly impact fuel consumption and vehicle longevity. These inefficient driving habits not only raise operational costs but also result in higher exhaust emissions, contributing to environmental degradation. Promoting eco-conscious driving styles can help mitigate these effects, reducing fuel waste and minimizing the ecological footprint of transportation systems.

What is Eco Driving?

Eco-driving is a driving style that aims to reduce fuel consumption, lower emissions, and promote safer driving habits. Here are some key principles of eco-driving.

Smooth Acceleration and Braking

Avoid rapid acceleration and harsh braking. Gradual changes in speed help save fuel and reduce wear and tear on your vehicle.

Maintain a Steady Speed

Use cruise control on highways to maintain a constant speed, which can improve fuel efficiency.

Anticipate Traffic Flow

Look ahead and anticipate traffic conditions to avoid unnecessary stops and starts. This helps in maintaining a smooth driving rhythm.

Proper Gear Usage

Shift gears appropriately to keep the engine running efficiently. In manual cars, upshift early and downshift late.

Reduce Idling

Turn off the engine if you expect to be stationary for more than a minute. Idling consumes fuel and produces emissions without any benefit.

Lighten the Load

Remove unnecessary weight from your vehicle. Extra weight increases fuel consumption

Regular Maintenance

Keep your vehicle well-maintained with regular servicing, proper tire inflation, and timely oil changes to ensure it runs efficiently.

By adopting these eco-driving techniques, you can save money on fuel, reduce your carbon footprint, and contribute to a cleaner environment. Plus, it often leads to a more relaxed and enjoyable driving experience.

The Solution

Most ATRAMS devices are fitted with eco driving capabilities. Our engineers enables the feature by default and during installation, ensure that the devices are placed carefully and intelligently to allow it to capture the correct eco driving data. If the received values exceed the set parameters, the device triggers the LED or Buzzer in the driver’s cab, alerting the driver to inefficient driving habits.

BENEFITS

  • Reduced running costs – saving fuel, tyres, and suspension through improved ride quality.
  • Longer vehicle life – keeping your fleet in good condition by reducing aggressive or sporty driving.
  • Increased road safety – less harsh manoeuvring means safer roads.
  • Reduced exhaust emissions – smooth acceleration and manoeuvring reduce engine load and therefore fuel consumption and exhaust emissions.
  • Improved cargo safety – responsible driving reduces the risk of damage to cargo.
  • Simplified configuration – setting recommended values of acceleration, braking, and cornering values for specific vehicles to ensure the best performance of the scenario.
