About ecoRoute

The ecoRoute

 feature calculates your vehicle 

fuel economy, carbon footprint, and the fuel price 
of navigating to a destination, and offers tools for 
improving fuel efficiency. 
The data provided by the ecoRoute feature is 
only an estimate. The data is not actually read 
from your vehicle. To receive more-accurate 
fuel reports for your specific vehicle and driving 
habits, calibrate the fuel economy. 

Creating a Vehicle Profile

The vehicle profile provides a basis for ecoRoute 
to calculate your vehicle fuel economy.

  Select Apps > ecoRoute™.

  2  

  Enter the required information, and select 

Next.

  3

Calibrating Fuel Economy

Use this feature when you refuel to maintain an 
accurate fuel economy. 

  1  

  Select Apps > ecoRoute™ > At the Pump.

  2  

  Enter the current fuel price.

  3  

  Enter how much fuel your vehicle has used 

since the last fill up.

  4  

  Enter the distance you have traveled since 

the last fill up.

  5  

  Select Next. 

Taking the ecoChallenge

The ecoChallenge helps you maximize your fuel 
economy by scoring your driving habits. The 
higher your ecoChallenge scores, the more fuel 
you save. The ecoChallenge collects data and 
calculates a score whenever you are moving.
The ecoChallenge   icon displays your current 
score on the map. 

 

Select Apps > ecoRoute™ > ecoChallenge. 

•  To view detailed ecoChallenge scores, select the icon.
  The leaf color on the driving challenge icon changes 

depending on your performance in the challenge.
