Abstract
This paper presents the evaluation of a new onboard system designed to reduce fuel consumption and CO2 production. The GERICO system enables the driver to adopt the best driving behaviour, smooth speed and good gear management. We carried out 80 tests (with training and GERICO) with 40 drivers in the Toulouse area. The main results show that training contributes to a 11% consumption reduction whereas using the GERICO system contributes to a 16% consumption reduction. Drivers consider that the system is useful and a good aid to fight against bad habits and reduce fuel consumption.
