6.1.4 Route calculation and recalculation
Zenec navigation calculates the route based on your preferences:
•
Route planning methods:
•
: Gives a quick route if you can travel at or near the speed
limit on all roads. Usually the best selection for fast and normal cars.
•
: Gives a route that has the smallest total distance of all
possible routes. It can be practical for slow vehicles.
•
: Gives a quick but fuel efficient route based on the fuel
consumption data given in Route settings (page 95). Travel cost and CO
2
emission calculations are estimations only. They cannot take elevations, curves
and traffic conditions into account.
•
: For vehicle types where Green routing is not available,
this method combines the benefits of Fast and Short: Zenec navigation
calculates as if it were calculating the Fast route, but it takes other roads as well
to save fuel.
•
: Results in a route with fewer turns and no difficult
manoeuvres. With this option, you can make Zenec navigation to take, for
example, the motorway instead of a series of smaller roads or streets.

Vehicle types:
When creating a new vehicle profile, select one of the below vehicle types. Besides the
below mentioned conditions, dimension, weight and freight hazard restrictions can also
be taken into account when planning a route.

Roads are used only if access for cars is allowed.
•
Private roads and resident-only roads are used only if they are inevitable
to reach the destination.
•
Walkways are excluded from routes.
