SCANIA OPTIMISE
The truck and its driver: your two most important assets It's no secret that under controlled laboratory conditions trucks are capable of delivering substantial and impressive fuel returns. But in real life, of course, the results can be very different. Here, a range of factors – variables such as traffic congestion and adverse weather conditions, for example – conspire against the operator, increasing fuel usage and thwarting the best laid plans to maximise economy in operation.

economy driving are maintained not only over the long term, but forever. To help on a day-to-day basis vehicles are equipped with Scania Driver Support, Scania's 'coach in the cab', which provides drivers with hints, tips and performance reviews via a simple dashboard display. The entire process is backed by a rigorous maintenance programme which comprises not only routine servicing but also a full inventory of efficiency checks and measures every time a vehicle visits the workshop. The results achieved by Scania Transport Laboratory are both dramatic and impressive; within a six month period, the fleet's overall fuel efficiency rose from an average of 6.7 to 9.04 mpg, an improvement of 35 percent. Today, that figure is sustained, an achievement made possible through a combination of Scania Driver Support, driver follow-up and a Communicator 200, the same telematics
