“…van der Voort (2001), for example, cites potential fuel savings in passenger cars in the region of 10 15%, when fuel efficient driving styles are practised. These savings can be achieved without impacting on travel times (Barth and Boriboonsomsin 2009;Beusen et al 2009). For the commercial sector, savings can be even higher and thus dedicated training courses for truck drivers have been developed and evaluated.…”

Whilst driving is inherently a safety critical task, awareness of fuel efficient driving techniques has gained popularity in both the public and commercial domains. Green driving, whether motivated by financial or environmental savings, has the potential to reduce the production of greenhouse gases by a significant amount. This paper focusses on the interaction between the driver and their vehicle -what type of eco driving information is easy to use and learn whilst not compromising safety. A simulator study evaluated both visual and haptic eco driving feedback systems in the context of hill driving. The ability of drivers to accurately follow the advice, as well as their propensity to prioritise it over safe driving was investigated. We found that any type of eco driving advice improved performance and whilst continuous real time visual feedback proved to be the most effective, this modality obviously reduces attention to the forward view and increases subjective workload. On the other hand, the haptic force system had little effect on reported workload, but was less effective that the visual system. A compromise may be a hybrid system that adapts to drivers' performance on an on going basis.

“…It has been reported that eco-driving could average reduce fuel consumption between 5 to 10%, and the reduction percent could even increase to 20 to 50% for excellent performers (Barth & Boriboonsomsin, 2009). With an increasing awareness of the costeffective benefits from eco-driving, more and more developed countries had launched campaigns to educate and coach drivers to drive more economically and environmentally (Luther & Baas, 2011).…”

Summary: Eco-driving has been proven to have a great benefit in reducing vehicle fuel consumption in many developed countries. However, the potential of ecodriving on energy-saving in China is not very clear. Taking three taxi drivers from Beijing Beiqi Taxi Group Company as examples, the petrol consumption, travel distance and many other factors influencing vehicle fuel use before and after ecodriving training were collected through survey forms. The short-term and long-term effect of eco-driving was compared. The results showed that, taking one month as the statistical cycle, the benefit of eco-driving in saving fuel consumption averaged is 19.04%; while it reduced to 14.41% after four months from taking eco-driving training. Thus, drivers would partially regressed back to less economically driving behaviors and thus resulting in lower fuel savings after sometime. This study laid a foundation to evaluate the benefit of eco-driving in saving energy use.
