WEBFLEET gives you real-time insight into fuel consumption and driving behaviour like idling and cruise control engagement. This valuable information allows you to take steps to effectively slash total cost of ownership, reduce fleet fuel costs and cut carbon emissions.
WEBFLEET fuel efficiency helps you
Lower your running costs
Improve fuel efficiency and reduce CO₂ emissions
Keep your company sustainable
Key features
Real-time fuel monitoring
By connecting to your truck’s FMS or CAN bus1, you get clear insight into how fuel is being used on each trip. Notifications when the fuel level is low alert you to abnormal fuel loss or theft.
Track fuel usage over time
Real-time and historical insight into your fleet's fuel consumption and emissions allows you to spot trends or anomalies. Compare performance over time on the fuel efficiency dashboard, spot exceptional events and use this insight to optimise your operating costs.

In WEBFLEET, the trace on the map is coloured green where cruise control is engaged. You can also see cruise control usage in the trip report. This helps you identify drivers that require additional training in using cruise control.
All you need to know about fuel efficiency
What is fuel efficiency?
What is fuel efficiency?
Fuel efficiency calculates how far a vehicle can go on one litre of petrol or diesel. The best speed for the lowest fuel consumption for most passenger cars and LCVs is roughly 40 to 50 miles per hour (mph). Driving faster than 50 mph increases aerodynamic drag and reduces fuel efficiency.
Why is fuel efficiency important?
Why is fuel efficiency important?
Studies show that fuel represents up to 38% of a fleet's total cost of ownership. So, fuel efficiency is key to cutting operational costs. A fuel-efficient fleet is a more sustainable one: the more efficiently your vehicles consume fuel, the more you reduce your fleet's C02 emissions.
How to increase fuel efficiency?
How to increase fuel efficiency?
Improve your fleet's fuel efficiency by combining fleet management skills with digital solutions. Choose tools that help you optimise driver performance (behaviours like speed and idling determine fuel consumption), route planning, vehicle maintenance and tyre performance. With a fleet management system like WEBFLEET, you can easily analyse real-time and historical data on fuel consumption.
How is fuel efficiency measured?
How is fuel efficiency measured?
In the UK, officials typically use metric data to measure fuel efficiency: litres per 100 kilometres, or L/km. Calculations for fuel efficiency vary by vehicle type, along with factors such as weight and tyre performance. The average fuel consumption for an HCV with a trailer is 30 L/100 km, translating to 39,000 litres per year.
