- First, the participants drive a lap of a marked course in the manner they usually drive. During this drive, a diverse series of measurements and data is recorded. The trainer observes and identifies initial areas of improvement.
- In a short theoretical module the participants learn the fundamentals of eco-friendly, fuel-saving driving.
- Based on the first set of recorded driving data, the trainer creates a set of driving tips for the next lap.
- The participants drive the same course again. This time utilizing the fuel-saving driving tips and with direct feedback from the trainer. Once again, a series of measurements are made and driving data is recorded.
- In the subsequent analysis of the recorded data, the improvement to the first lap is highlighted and further potential for improvement is identified.
- With this knowledge, every participant drives a last lap in order put theory into practice once again and to reinforce the learning effect.
- In the final round of feedback, the data from all three laps is evaluated, compared with each other and documented.
And in the end, everybody can see for themselves how the driving techniques that they have learned can lower fuel consumption and emissions by up to 20% – without losing time or having less fun!
