Lorry Engine Remapping
Fuel is one of the largest overheads in road transport. The haulage industry has spent thousands of man hours searching for ways to help the fleet manager cut operating costs.
One of the easiest and cheapest ways – which delivers almost immediate payback – is remapping the Engine ECU.
Bespoke Remapping York can carefully adjust the calibration parameters within the Engine ECU. A typical remap allows the engine to produce more torque lower in the RPM range, enabling higher gears to be selected earlier or maintained for longer before down shifting. Using the revised gear change strategy fuel savings of between 5% and 20% are often achievable. Driver training is of course invaluable as an inefficient driver will still waste fuel, but the majority of drivers should achieve savings within the first few trips.
With typical improvements in MPG of between 10% – 15% your investment will be quickly recouped, and don’t underestimate the time and efficiency improvements that come with a bigger range.
When driven professionally, we would expect on average to see a reduction of around 10% from your fuel bil, possibly more.
