“…The results showed that eco-driving techniques contributed to reducing parameters FCM (fuel consumption -on the move), TFC (total fuel consumption) and AFC (average fuel consumption) considerably and values of these parameters before training were significantly greater than those after training, p = 0,000, p = 0,001 and p = 0,001, respectively. There are previous evidences which have also reported eco-driving training to result in an increase in fuel savings for bus drivers [9,10,23,24,25]. These researchers showed that eco-driving could increase the fuel economy up to 27%.…”

This paper shows an eco-driving pilot program that has been implemented in the public transport company "JGSP Belgrade", Serbia, in order to assess the possibilities of using eco-driving for an entire car fleet of the assessed company in the future. Eco-driving training and education of thirteen drivers were conducted in real driving conditions on the route length of 14 km and consisted of three phases. The results of eco-driving training of thirteen bus drivers confirm the findings of the previous researches that eco-driving has got many benefits. After the training, all drivers saw fuel consumption reduced by 8.61% on average, and consequently the average CO2 emission reduced by 8.61%. The implementation of eco-driving training in the assessed company and the attained fuel economy, leads to significant annual savings. However, some driving parameters were not significantly improved after training indicating a driver's slow adaptation and application of new driving techniques.

“…The values of the operating parameters of an ICE can be monitored and stored through the OBD-II diagnostic protocol, allowing us to correlate them with vehicle performance and fuel consumption. For instance, this enables the analysis of the relationship between user driving behavior and the fuel consumption of a specific vehicle model [65,66].…”

In recent times, the significance of advancing road transportation technologies has notably increased. This is mainly driven by the escalating need for road transportation systems that are not only safe but also environmentally sustainable. Moreover, enhancing fuel efficiency in road vehicles (i.e., automobiles) holds the potential to contribute significantly to the reduction of a country’s economic vulnerability (i.e., improved energy security), by reducing the reliance on energy imports. While research reports and scientific journals provide valuable information on automobile fuel consumption, it is essential to continually update our understanding of the factors that influence it. This document aims to review and describe the various factors, both direct and indirect, that play a role in an automotive’s overall energy efficiency and fuel consumption.

“…The concept of "eco-driving" has been in use for some time. It can be understood as applying a driving style by drivers that reduces fuel consumption and thus the emission of toxic substances, especially CO 2 [1][2][3]. There have been many scientific publications on this issue [4].…”

The article presents how embedded systems can be used to collect data in the long-term traction of a car. It is assumed that the long period is the time of a travelled distance, e.g. a few thousands of kilometers, or a time, e.g. a month. Such data can be used to optimize the control systems and to diagnose unusual faults in mechatronic systems. The research paper presents how, with the use of very cheap devices, it is possible to collect data that quite often could not be collected even with the use of very expensive measuring devices. The possibility of simple analysis of signals in real time was also noted.
