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 CO2
emission when planning a route, and you can create cost effective routes with less
effect on the environment.
In Settings, select to enter the necessary parameters of your vehicle
and the average fuel price. 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 CO2
emission 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 CO2 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:
If the selected route planning method is not Green, and you have allowed the
application to show the green alternative, the price, fuel consumption and CO2
emission differences between your selected route and the Green route are also
shown on this screen:
Tap the field with these details to switch the route to Green immediately.
