GB
Whenever data exist, route calculation takes into account statistical traffic data for the
given day of week and time of day (page 128).
Audiovox NAV 104 automatically recalculates the route if you deviate from the proposed
itinerary.
For further information about Route settings, see page 224.

5.1.5 Green routing

Route calculation is not only about finding the quickest or shortest route. For some of the
vehicle types, you can also check the fuel consumption and CO emission when planning
2
a route, and you can create cost effective routes with less effect on the environment.
In Route settings, you can edit the parameters of the selected vehicle. Enter the fuel
consumption values and the price of the fuel. You can also select whether you want to
see the difference between your route and the green route even if the selected routing
method is not Green.
After the above parameters are set, select as route planning
method to get a fast but also fuel efficient route. Note that travel cost and CO emission
2
calculations are estimations only. They cannot take elevations, turns, curves and
traffic conditions into account. Also, this routing is not meant to give you the „greenest"
route of all. It is still important to travel quickly so the result is a fast route with low fuel
consumption and CO emission.

With a vehicle type where green routing is selectable, whichever route planning method
is selected, the Green details are also shown when you confirm the route:
