Eco-Driving
Reduce fuel and energy use and mechanical wear through driving technique.
- Duration
- 2–3 hours
- Delivery
- On-road, with observation before and after coaching
- Output
- Session record noting techniques covered and driver feedback
Eco-driving techniques — smoother acceleration, earlier planning, better gear and speed selection, reduced idling — tend to reduce fuel or energy consumption and mechanical wear while also producing calmer, lower-risk driving. Results vary by vehicle, route and driver, so we describe what the session covers rather than promising a percentage.
What the session includes
Baseline observation
A short drive to observe current technique and vehicle use.
Technique coaching
Acceleration, momentum, gear and speed selection, and anticipation.
Vehicle-specific guidance
Guidance appropriate to the vehicle, including hybrid and electric.
Idling and journey factors
Idling, tyre pressures, loading and route choice.
Post-coaching drive
A further drive applying the techniques, with feedback.
What your organisation receives
- Practical techniques that reduce fuel or energy use and wear
- Smoother vehicle control, which also supports safer driving
- Driver-level understanding of what affects consumption
- A documented session record for the driver file
Scope
Driver assessment and development can form part of a wider approach to managing occupational road risk, alongside vehicle maintenance, journey planning, policy, licence checking and incident review.
