Real-time Traffic events are also taken into account and sometimes greatly modify the route.
Zenec navigation automatically recalculates the route if you deviate from the proposed
itinerary or if a newly received Traffic event concerns a part of the recommended route.

6.1.5 Green routing
Route calculation is not only about finding the quickest or shortest route. For some of the
vehicle types, you can also check the fuel consumption and CO
2
emission when planning a
route, and you can create cost effective routes with less effect on the environment.
In Route settings, you can edit the parameters of the selected vehicle. Enter the fuel
consumption values and the price of the fuel. You can also select whether you want to see
the difference between your route and the green route even if the selected routing method is
not Green.
After the above parameters are set, select
as route planning method to
get a fast but also fuel efficient route. Note that travel cost and CO
2
emission calculations are
estimations only. They cannot take elevations, turns, curves and traffic conditions into
account. Also, this routing is not meant to give you the "greenest" route of all. It is still
important to travel quickly so the result is a fast route with low fuel consumption and CO
2
emission.
With a vehicle type where green routing is selectable, whichever route planning method is
selected, the Green details are also shown when you confirm the route:
