Stop Fleet Fuel Waste from Draining Your Profits

June 11, 2025

Fuel is one of the largest operating expenses for any fleet. In fact, fuel can account for up to 60% of a fleet’s total operating costs. According to industry data, even a one-mile-per-gallon improvement in fuel economy can save thousands of dollars per vehicle annually. Telematics solutions give you the data, insights, and tools to control fuel consumption and cut costs. This solution is available as an optional add-on to our rental trucks, giving you even more flexibility to manage your fleet.

 

Monitor and Improve Driver Behavior

 

Aggressive driving, excessive idling, and speeding all waste fuel. The telematics platform tracks real-time driver behavior, providing actionable insights to help drivers adopt more efficient habits. Smoother driving reduces fuel consumption and extends vehicle life.

 

Optimize Routes to Save Fuel

 

Route optimization tools help avoid traffic congestion, unnecessary detours, and inefficient routes. By reducing miles driven and idle time, smarter routing directly lowers fuel usage.

 

Preventive Maintenance for Better Fuel Economy

 

Poorly maintained vehicles burn more fuel. The system monitors engine health, tire pressure, and other critical metrics, alerting you when maintenance is needed. Well-maintained vehicles operate at peak fuel efficiency and avoid costly repairs.

 

Track Fuel Consumption in Real-Time

 

Detailed reporting on fuel use across your entire fleet allows you to identify high-usage vehicles, spot trends, and make informed decisions to improve efficiency and reduce costs.
