There are several way FleetMatics GPS Vehicle Tracking can help you save money on fuel and manpower. The only way to lower your fuel bill is by reducing consumption. Our tracking system includes management features to help ensure that your vehicles use fuel efficiently. These include:
- Monitor Vehicle Speed High speed is a major source of wasted fuel. In fact, maintaining efficient vehicle speed provides a fuel economy benefit of 7-23%.
Our fleet tracking system allows you to monitor the speed of each vehicle in your fleet. In addition, Red Flag Alerts will notify you when any vehicle exceeds your designated speed threshold. With FleetMatics GPS fleet tracking, you’ll always know which drivers are speeding and wasting your fuel.
- Reduce Idling Times
FleetMatics GPS fleet tracking also monitors idling times for each of your vehicles. A vehicle that idles longer than 10 seconds wastes more fuel than restarting the engine. Considering all factors, including any wear and tear caused by restarting, any vehicle that will be stopped for more than 60 seconds (except in traffic) should have the engine turned off.
FleetMatics GPS vehicle tracking gives you the ability to see the precise amount of time your fleet vehicles are idling – showing you which drivers allow their vehicles to sit and unproductively burn petrol.
