ECO:DRIVE, Fiat’s awarding-winning in-car system that can save fuel and reduce emissions, has been introduced to the fleet market with the launch of eco:Drive Fleet.

The highly-successful eco:Drive system - more than 34,500 motorists have signed up to use it regularly, and over four million journeys have been logged and analysed on the dedicated website - has won numerous awards in its individual customer format.

Now the new application looks set to follow that trend into fleets with its ability to manage mileage and fuel consumption retrospectively, and offer suggestions on sustainable driving behaviour for company drivers in the future.

Fiat’s system optimises the fuel consumption and the safety of company car and van fleets by measuring the mileage data for all vehicles (distance, time, fuel consumption) and shows the data for vehicles or drivers, either individually or collectively.

The system also automatically updates the database with management costs and the mileage count for maintenance intervals; it evaluates driving behaviour and its impact on fuel consumption, and offers users advice on becoming an 'eco-driver'.

Free to download and use (www.fiat.com/ecodrive), eco:Drive Fleet is available for all Fiat vehicles (500, 500C, Punto Evo, Bravo, Qubo, new Doblo) and for Fiat Professional commercial vehicles equipped with the Blue&Me platform (Grande Punto Van, Fiorino and Doblo Cargo).
