Masternaut telematics now offers drivers access to instant feedback on performance and driving style combined with real-time audible coaching.

Drivers can also receive end-of-journey reporting.

The feedback includes fuel consumption and emissions by the day, week or month with a rating that measures over-revving, harsh acceleration and breaking combined with idling and an option on speed.

This allows the driver to have a constant overview of how his driving style contributes to the amount of fuel consumed.

Martin Hiscox, chairman and CEO of Masternaut, said: “For the fleet – if the driver can make even a small improvement to performance of 10% for example, the payback for the organisation in reduced cost of operation can be significant. We have seen in some early deployments that a 20% reduction in fuel can be achieved when combined with Masternaut’s driver education programmes.”
