Green Routing
Route calculation is not only about fi nding 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 eff ective routes with less
eff ect 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
diff erence 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 effi cient route. Note that travel cost and CO2
emission calculations are estimations only. They cannot take elevations, turns,
curves and traffi c 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 confi rm 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 diff erences between your selected route and the Green route are also
shown on this screen:
Tap the fi eld with these details to switch the route to Green immediately.
