Take the Driving Challenge
The Driving Challenge tool helps you
maximize your fuel economy by scoring
your driving habits. The higher your
overall score for a Driving Challenge,
the more fuel you could save.
To take a Driving Challenge, touch Tools
> ecoRoute > Driving Challenge, then
touch Start.
Your overall score is the average of three
scores:
Acceleration score—gain points for
gradual acceleration; lose points for
rapid acceleration.
Deceleration score—gain points for
gradual braking; lose points for hard
braking.
Speed score—gain points for driving at
the best speed for conserving fuel, which
is 45–60 mph for most vehicles.
Touch on the Map page to view
details about your current challenge. The
leaf color on the driving challenge icon
changes depending on your performance
in the challenge.
When viewing the details, touch Stop >
Yes to stop the current challenge.
To reset your best scores, touch Reset.
